It's not. :-)

1 can of the broth is 14 oz.
The proportions are still roughly 2 parts liquid to 1 part rice...

I didn't...
Pressure cooking rice works well with the usual 2 to 1 proportions.

The celery added some additional liquid. I have difficulty cooking rice

pressure cooker, and it's fast! :-)
