Notes

  • : This recipe yields approximately about 3 cups of cooked long-grain brown rice, which is ideal for 4 servings. The nutritional values below are per serving.
  • Cooking liquid: If you want your rice to be flavorful, you can
  • vegetable broth
  • or
  • chicken stock
  • in place of water.
  • Rice to water ratio and time of cooking: The recipe, as written (1 to 1 ¼ rice to water ratio cooked for 23 minutes), yields soft and chewy brown rice. However, if
  • you prefer it to be on the firmer side, with a bit more bite to it, use a 1:1 ratio of water to rice. In other words, for every 1 cup of brown rice, use 1 cup of cooking liquid and adjust the cooking time to 20 minutes.
  • If you have any leftovers, bring them to room temperature and store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
  • To freeze, cool completely by spreading the rice on a baking sheet. Transfer to a freezer-safe airtight container, label, date, and freeze for up to a month.
  • You can reheat it in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, mixing after each time until it is thoroughly heated.
