Soak the brown rice in water for a while before cooking and add a lot more water and let it sit after it's done. It's best not to cook brown rice in a rice cooker bro

Aww don't tell me that bro lol I spent like 50 on a rice cooker just for this how long do I leave it for?

rice cookers are good but i dont even use mine anymore.

I buy uncle bens boil in bag brown rice and take 4 bags at a time and submerge them in boiling water for 15 minutes and that shit is PERFECT man, soft as hell and perfect.

I put a little peach salsa on my rice to make it taste good, too.

Boo I don't wanna not use it nooooo lool

yea.....generic bags of brown rice is the easiest way........boil it and its done....
a little butter.........or some soy sauce.......mmmmmmmmmmmm

Where can I get this then? How much carbs in 100g?

At your local super market. Uncle Ben's boil in a bag brown rice. They have other brands as well...it depends where you shop!

yeah walmart, anywhere really...i cook up a bunch at one time (which only takes 15 minutes like I said) and put it in a plastic container in the fridge so its ready to go.

1 cooked cup is like 35 or 36g carbs, and like i said add a little peach salsa and its right

That sounds good bro..I'll have to try that. Brown rice is so f'ing redundant when dieting. or else I use Calrose sticky rice- and that you can cook in a rice cooker!!!

Yeah man I have some mild peach salsa, paul newman is the brand i think, and ill heat the rice up and then take a couple of spoonfuls of the salsa and stir it in....you are right about rice getting boring as shit and bland so try that out.

Cool. I just PM'd you to ask where I can find that! Sounds awesome..anything is better than plain brown rice!!!

Yeah I PM'd you bro, I looked and its called Newmans Own peach salsa, same isle as the rice at walmart

I've been cooking regular brown rice in a rice cooker for years with no prob. The measure is 1:1.75 rice:water

I always rinse the rice a few times before cooking. Takes away any dust/dirt that may have settled on it while packaging.

Really? Whole grain? I trying so many different ways I put 1 cup with 2 cups of water it's just hard when it comes out I've been eating weetabix instead I have a really good diet but i need the rice to be good or I'm fucked lol so how should I cook it? If it don't work il just have to get that Ben bag thingy?

lol @ ben bag thingy....

bro its just brown rice in little bags that you boil in water then cut the bag open after 15 minutes and dump it into a container and you're gold.

Loo yh but I live in the uk I dntno if it's called that bro lol I'm about to sell my rice cooker it's new interested? Lol I've done my shoping so I won't be able to for another 2 weeks umm fuck I'm so pissed bro

you def have to soak the brown rice in water. It's a tougher grain so it requires longer cooking times. Water will help

Yh I've put it on the stove now in just a pot of 3 cups of water it's ok now il just have to frigin sell my new rice cooker!! Ain't that a bitch lol

I have a rice cooker and it works great for brown rice. all i eat is brown rice. no white for me. its a cheep one my wife got at one of these papered cheif parties or something like that. like 25 dollars. u put it in microwave for 35 mins

it works much better than my very expensive rice cooker if you just want to cook rice and not stew

Well i never tried brown rice but after visiting this post and reading all of you people comments i will surely try brown rice too.

Boil-in-bag means half the nutrients you're eating the brown rice for get leached into the cooking water and poured down the drain.
