    Description

    Here's the only recipe you need to make perfect brown rice every time! This healthy whole grain is great on its own as a side dish or use it in your favorite recipes calling for cooked brown rice.

    Directions

    1. Combine water (or broth) and rice in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer until tender and most of the liquid has been absorbed, 40 to 50 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
