Boiled Brown Rice
Brown rice (short or long grain) is a staple for many people who eat natural foods. Simple to prepare and complementary to most beans and vegetables, brown rice provides a foundation for building meals. Soaking is recommended before cooking brown rice. If there is no time to soak, roast first. Roasting inactivates the enzyme inhibitors, boosts flavor, and produces a light and fluffy dish.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups brown rice
- 4 cups water
- ⅛ tsp sea salt
Procedure – Wash and drain brown rice. Soak 4 to 8 hours. Add sea salt after soaking. Cover. Bring to a boil. Simmer over low heat for 1 hour, using a heat diffuser if needed.
Yield: 6 cups for short rice, 6½ cups for long rice
