Ingredients
- 2 cups brown rice
- 2 1/2 cups water
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1 Tablespoon salted butter
- 2 teaspoons Better Than Bouillon chicken base optional
Instructions
- Rinse the rice with a fine mesh strainer using cold water to remove some of the starch. It really does help the rice to be less gummy.
- Add the rice, water or broth, salt, and butter to the instant pot, then seal with the lid and make sure the pressure release valve is set to seal.
- Cook on HIGH pressure (manual) for 22 minutes, then allow the Instant Pot to do a 10 minute natural release.
- Manually vent any remaining pressure, then remove the lid and fluff the brown rice with a fork.
- Serve warm.
Notes
- You can easily double this recipe without adjusting the cooking time. I made this in a 6-quart Instant Pot and had plenty of room for more.
- Storing and Freezing: Leftover rice will keep in the fridge for up to 7 days or can even be frozen for up to 3 months. To reheat, transfer the frozen rice to a bowl without thawing and heat in the microwave with a damp towel over the bowl.
