How to Cook Brown Rice image

Brown rice is less processed and more nutritious than its white counterpart. The trick to steaming it is to use less water than called for on the package. The end result: deliciously fluffy, nutty-flavored grains that hold up well in the refrigerator or freezer.

This recipe was a lifesaver! I've tried cooking brown rice before, but it always came out mushy. This method produced perfectly cooked, fluffy rice.
