How To Cook Brown Rice Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Place the rice into an 8-inch square glass baking dish.
• Bring the water, butter, and salt just to a boil in a kettle or covered saucepan. Once the water boils, pour it over the rice, stir to combine, and cover the dish tightly with heavy-duty aluminum foil. Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 1 hour.
• After 1 hour, remove cover and fluff the rice with a fork. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Rinse the rice in a fine-mesh sieve under cold water for 30 seconds. Drain.
• Combine the rice, salt and 2 cups water in a wide, medium saucepan and bring the water to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer until all liquid is absorbed, about 30 minutes. Remove from the heat and let sit, covered, for 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork before serving.

Steps:

• First, put the rice in a strainer inside a bowl and wash it well. I usually change the water in the bowl at least 3 times. The water doesn't need to run completely clear, but it should not be very cloudy or brownish when the rice is washed. Leave the rice in the strainer to drip out for at least a few minutes.
• Put the rice and water in a saucepan with a tight-fitting lid and bring just to a boil over high heat. You don't want it to really boil, as soon as you start to see the bubbles, put on the lid and turn the heat down to very, very low (on my electric stove, I put it between "lo" and 1).
• Resist the temptation to take off the lid and check the rice too much. After about 25 minutes you can check it once and see how much water is left. I do this by sticking a wooden spatula down into the rice and pushing it to the side a little. If there is still water, push the rice back together, put the lid back on, and let it cook a few more minutes. Do not stir or disrupt the rice any more than you have to. It will take about 30 to 35 minutes for it to finish cooking.
• When all the water is absorbed, there will still be sort of a mushy layer at the bottom of the pot. Take the pot off the heat and leave undisturbed for at least 10 minutes. You can really leave it there as long as you like -- the moisture at the bottom will even out and the finished rice should be slightly al dente with all the grains separate.If there are a few clumps, just break them up with a fork or your fingers before serving or storing.
• If you plan to use the rice for fried rice, I would recommend refrigerating it for at least 6 hours, but overnight is better, so plan ahead!

Steps:

• Place 2 c rice in a dish with a cover. Pour enough water in to cover and let sit on the counter for at least 2 hours.
• Drain in a colendar.
• Fill steamer with water to the high mark. Place steamer basket on steamer. Put rice in rice bowl with 2 1/2 c clean water.
• Cover steamer and steam for 65 to 70 minutes Let sit for 10 minutes.
• Remove rice from steamer. If eating it right away serve as usual with butter and spices.
• If you are not eating right away put rice back in colendar and rinse with cold water till rice is cooled. Place portions into zip top freezer bags, lay flat and squeeze out air and seal bags. Place in freezer till serving day.
• To use frozen rice, place bag in fridge to thaw about 12 hrs before you are going to use it. Pour thawed rice into a microwave container with just a sprinkle of water. Cover and vent. Microwave about 2 to 3 mins or till warmed through. Serve as usual.

Steps:

• Add 1 1/2 cups raw brown rice to bottom of a 9x13-inch glass baking dish. (Or do 1 cup in an 8x8-inch glass baking dish.).
• Spread evenly over the bottom of the pan.
• Pour in liquid at a ratio of 2 1/4 times the amount of rice you used. I generally do water, but if I want a bit more flavor, I will do half water and half chicken or vegetable broth. (2.25*1.5=3.375, or 3 3/8 cup of water for this recipe.).
• Press down and floating rice with a flat spatula.
• Once all the rice is at the bottom and no longer floating -- Wrap tightly with foil.
• Bake at 350°F for 1 hour.
• Let cool slightly before removing the foil -- there will be lots of steam and you don't want to get a steam burn!
• Fluff with a fork, season with salt and pepper and serve.
• And that's how you do it friends!
• Simple, deliciously perfect brown rice, baked in the oven!

Steps:

• Spray your rice cooker pot with a non-stick cooking spray. This works wonders at keeping your rice from sticking and burning.
• Add your brown rice and water. While the typical rice-to-water ratio for white rice is one part rice to two parts water, brown rice works better if you go with one part rice to two and a half parts water.
• Add salt to taste.
• On a cutting board, press the flat edge of a knife on the cloves of garlic to squash them. Remove and discard the papery skin and drop the smashed cloves into the cooker.
• Add olive oil.
• Cover the pot and turn on the cooker. Expect brown rice to take a little longer to cook than white rice (about 30 to 40 minutes instead of 20).

Steps:

• Prepare rice according to directions and drain.
• Heat oil in large skillet.
• Add onion, saute a few minutes (5) and add eggs. Scramble.
• Stir in shrimp and rest of ingredients.
• Heat through.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Combine rice, 1 1/2 cups water, salt, and a drizzle of oil in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer, then cover and cook over low heat until tender and liquid is absorbed, 40 to 45 minutes. Remove from heat; let stand, covered, 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork. Use immediately, or spread on a rimmed baking sheet to let cool.
