Instructions for Basic Brown Rice

1. Bring water to boil in a large pot. Stir in rice, oil or butter, and salt. Simmer briskly, uncovered, until rice is almost tender, about 30 minutes. 2. Drain rice into a steamer basket that fits inside the pot. Fill pot with about 1 inch water and return to heat. Place basket of rice in pot- cover and steam until tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Scoop rice into a bowl and fluff gently with a fork. Rice Cooker Variation: Stir 2 1/4 cups water, 1 cup brown rice, 1 teaspoon oil or butter, and 1/2 teaspoon salt together in the cooking chamber of a rice cooker. Cover, and cook according to manufacturers directions. If rice remains too crunchy for your taste, add several tablespoons water and restart cooking. Machine will automatically shut off when additional water has been absorbed. Cooks Illustrated.
