PERFECT OVEN-BAKED BROWN RICE
I got this one from "The Best Recipe" by Cook's Illustrated. It's a very easy way to make brown rice that comes out perfect every time. No more sticky, clumpy, waterlogged goop! This rice is tender and separate and delicious. Notice that the ratio of water to rice is much less than the oft-quoted 2 to 1. This is the key to this recipe, so make sure to measure carefully.

Steps:
- Place oven rack in middle position. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Bring the water to a boil. Keep the water covered as it boils so you don't lose too much as steam.
- When the oven is at 375, put the water, rice, and salt into an ovenproof pot with a tight-fitting lid. I have successfully used pyrex dishes and cast-iron dutch ovens. If you don't have a good lid, you can also use a double layer of foil. Just make sure it's sealed well around the edges.
- Pop it in the oven.
- The rice is done when it is tender and the water is all gone. It usually takes an hour. When it's done, fluff it with a fork and serve. Yum! So simple and good!
OVEN BAKED SWEET AND SAVORY BROWN RICE
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour. Remove the pan from the oven, transfer the rice to a serving bowl and serve.

HOW TO BAKE BROWN RICE IN THE OVEN
Friends...I'm baking brown rice these days. For years, I'd made it on the stovetop, as that's how I learned how to cook rice when I lived in the Dominican Republic years ago. Then I discovered the rice cooker. I've only been using my rice cooker for a few months, but I love it. It cooks the rice so beautifully, and the clean up is way simpler than cleaning (and sometimes scrubbing out) the saucepan. But I loaned my rice cooker to my sister and I didn't want to go back to the stovetop. (Not that I won't ever cook rice on the stovetop again!) But...even if I set the timer, I might not get there in time...for it to be perfectly cooked. These early days with a baby makes it difficult to commit to being at any one time...even if the timer is set and the rice should be cooked perfectly. We could be in the middle of a fuss-fest, and diaper change and outfit change, or in the middle of a nursing session. Cooking brown rice on the stovetop is a fine art, and requires a bit of attention towards the end, to make sure you get that perfectly cooked and fluffed brown rice to serve for dinner. So I've turned to the oven. Baking brown rice. There are a number of "rice bake" recipe in my recipe collection. But today, I thought I'd share a basic how to cook brown rice. Feel free to experiment with mixing in different spices and veggies. Here's the easy, side-dish, basic way to bake brown rice...

Steps:
- Add 1 1/2 cups raw brown rice to bottom of a 9x13-inch glass baking dish. (Or do 1 cup in an 8x8-inch glass baking dish.).
- Spread evenly over the bottom of the pan.
- Pour in liquid at a ratio of 2 1/4 times the amount of rice you used. I generally do water, but if I want a bit more flavor, I will do half water and half chicken or vegetable broth. (2.25*1.5=3.375, or 3 3/8 cup of water for this recipe.).
- Press down and floating rice with a flat spatula.
- Once all the rice is at the bottom and no longer floating -- Wrap tightly with foil.
- Bake at 350°F for 1 hour.
- Let cool slightly before removing the foil -- there will be lots of steam and you don't want to get a steam burn!
- Fluff with a fork, season with salt and pepper and serve.
- And that's how you do it friends!
- Simple, deliciously perfect brown rice, baked in the oven!

Tips:
- Use brown rice that has been rinsed and drained. This will help to remove any excess starch and prevent the rice from becoming sticky.
- Use a baking dish that is large enough to accommodate the rice and allow for some expansion.
- Season the rice with salt, pepper, and any other desired herbs or spices before baking. This will help to add flavor to the rice.
- Add a little bit of oil or butter to the baking dish before adding the rice. This will help to prevent the rice from sticking to the dish.
- Bake the rice at a high temperature for the first 15 minutes, then reduce the temperature and continue baking until the rice is tender and fluffy.
- Fluff the rice with a fork before serving. This will help to separate the grains of rice and make them light and airy.
