  • Brown rice for those of us who don't have Zojirushis

    Saveur's method for cooking brown rice. Works like a charm.

    Interesting. I really need to make the switch from white to brown rice but I just don't like it. I'll have to try this.

    There's a Thai curry that I really like to make, but the white rice and its ridiculously high GI keeps me from making it as much as I would like. I know this may be anathema to some, but has anyone ever tried this with brown rice?

      Yeah. It is different, but you get used to it.

        I made stir-fry with brown rice yesterday, and liked it. I've never had it with Thai curry, though.

        I love brown rice. I like the chewiness and the texture, and even the slightly nutty taste. Brown rice also seems to store in the refrigerator pretty well, whereas white rice is pretty much dead once it's cooled down.

          GABA brown (using short-grain brown) on the Zojirushi is awesome. Worth the price of admission right there.

            I'm not a rice expert like many here. I really do prefer brown rice to white rice. Our cooker in the US we would just have to add extra water and let it cook about 45 minutes to an hour longer than we would white. Here in the Philippines, we have a crappy cooker yet it makes brown rice perfect and in about half the time as our US machine. I have no idea how or why. Probably has something to do with the rice here, but we have tried different varieties both here and there and the final results have been the same.

              Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."
