Perfect Instant Pot Brown Rice with Sesame-Soy Dressing

This recipe will give you the perfect brown rice. You can stop there and serve it plain, but I highly recommend tossing it with the light sesame-soy dressing, which takes it to the next level and makes this rice the perfect side dish!

Author's Notes

I have the 6-qt Instant Pot, which is important only because the size of the pot may affect the timing. These instructions work perfectly for my Instant Pot every time.
