MASTER RECIPE: BROWN RICE



Master Recipe: Brown Rice image

Unlike white rice, brown rice retains the nutritious bran and germ covering of the rice grain. This gives it a chewy texture, a nutty aroma, and plenty of essential nutrients. Follow our tried-and-true formula for perfectly fluffy brown rice every time.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Pasta and Grains     Rice Recipes

Yield Makes about 2 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 cup brown rice
1 1/4 to 1 1/2 cups water
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • The Right Ratio: Trust us: Though it's printed on the package, the standard 2-to-1 ratio makes mushy rice. For long-grain brown rice, use 1 1/4 cups water to 1 cup rice. For short-grain, use 1 1/2 cups water.
  • Quick Cooking Time: Bring rice, water, and salt (1/4 teaspoon per cup of rice) to a boil. Cover, and reduce to a slow, steady simmer. Many recipes call for 50 minutes, but we think 30 minutes is plenty. A wide, shallow pot with a tight-fitting lid ensures evenly cooked grains.
  • Steam and Fluff: Let the cooked rice sit for 10 minutes, covered, to absorb maximum moisture; then remove the lid, and fluff the grains with a fork.

Categories     side-dish

Time 2h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice wine or sake
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 sticks cinnamon
3 3/4 cups water
2 cups long-grain rice
2 1/2 teaspoons safflower or corn oil
1 1/2 cups thinly sliced leeks
1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons good-quality curry powder
3 to 4 carrots, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch dice (about 1 1/2 cups)
3 to 4 turnips, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch dice (about 1/12 cups)
3 1/2 tablespoons rice wine or sake
1/2 cup water
1 1/2 cups cooked peas (if using frozen, thaw to room temperature)

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, mix sauce ingredients together.
  • Put the cinnamon sticks and the water in a pot and bring to a boil. Cook about 5 minutes over medium heat. Under cold running water, rinse the rice in a saucepan until the water runs clear. Drain and add the rice to the cinnamon water. Bring the water to a boil again, reduce the heat to low, and cover. Simmer covered for 17 minutes, or until craters appear in the surface of the rice and the water has been absorbed. Remove from the heat and fluff the cooked grains with a fork. Cover and let sit for 15 minutes, then uncover and spread the rice out on a cookie sheet with a fork to cool completely. Discard the cinnamon sticks. (The rice should be cold or at least room temperature before stir-frying.)
  • Heat a wok or large skillet. Add the oil and heat until hot. Add the leeks and garlic, and stir-fry over medium heat until slightly softened and translucent. Add the curry powder and stir-fry for 10 seconds, until fragrant. Add the carrots, turnips, rice wine, and water, and partially cover. Cook about 5 to 8 minutes, until tender, then add the cooked rice, breaking it up with a spatula. Add the peas and the sauce. Toss lightly to coat the ingredients and spoon into a serving dish.

Tips:

  • To achieve the perfect texture, rinse the brown rice thoroughly before cooking. This removes the starch and helps the rice to cook evenly.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven to cook the rice. This will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the rice from burning.
  • The ratio of water to rice is important. For brown rice, the general rule is 1 1/2 cups of water for every cup of rice.
  • Bring the water and rice to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 45-50 minutes, or until the rice is tender and all of the water has been absorbed.
  • Once the rice is cooked, remove it from the heat and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before fluffing it with a fork.
  • For a more flavorful rice, add a bay leaf, a cinnamon stick, or a few cloves to the cooking water.
  • Brown rice can be used in a variety of dishes, including pilafs, salads, soups, and stir-fries.

Conclusion:

Cinnamon brown rice is a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. It is a good source of fiber, protein, and antioxidants, and it has a slightly sweet and nutty flavor that pairs well with both sweet and savory dishes. With its versatility and nutritional value, cinnamon brown rice is a great addition to any healthy diet.
