Brown Rice



I bought a bag of organic jasmine brown rice today at Fresh & Easy - 2.95 for a two-pound bag. I don't even know if that's cheap or not. I know it's much healthier than regular rice, so I figured, hell why not right?

I followed the directions on the bag (double water to rice, let cook for a long time), and it came out pretty good. It will take some getting used to because the outside of the rice grain (aka what makes it brown). It took quite some time and I had to add more water, but it worked pretty well. My pots are not great and don't seal well enough to cook rice well, so what I do is put a piece of aluminum foil under the lid and it keeps all the steam in - it works pretty well.

I didn't take a picture, because really, it was a bowl of rice :p
