Brown rice - Alternate method

BROWN RICE - Alternate Method

1. Place two cups of washed brown rice in a pressure cooker with three to four cups of water.

2. Place the pressure cooker on a low flame until bubbles begin to rise.

3. Add appropriate seasoning (pinch of sea salt or thumb-size piece of kombu per cup of uncooked grain).

4. Put on the lid, turn up the flame, and bring to high pressure on a medium-high flame.

5. Place the pressure cooker on a flame deflector, reduce the flame and cook on a low-medium flame, just enough to maintain pressure.

6. At that point when the cooker has come up to pressure, cook for approximately 45 to 50 minutes.

7. Turn off the flame and let the pressure reduce naturally.

8. The rice will not stick to the bottom, so gently transfer it to a wooden bowl.

NOTE: Grains should be eaten at every meal (50% or more of your daily intake of food) and pressure-cooked brown rice should be your daily staple in temperate climates. However, many variations and combinations are possible for variety. Some suggestions are provided below.
