Zojirushi Recipe – Brown Rice

There are many varieties of brown rice, but they all have one thing in common; the grains are not hulled or polished so the nutritious outer bran layer remains intact, hence the tan color of this rice. The higher fiber content of brown rice also gives it a distinct nutty flavor and chewy texture. Your Zojirushi rice cooker will cook brown rice so easily and perfectly that you'll want to serve it every day.

            	Brown Rice  Ingredients

Ingredients:

  • Short grain brown rice
  • Water

*If cooking in a rice cooker without the “BROWN” setting, please limit the amount of rice to 2/3 of the rice cooker’s capacity to prevent from overflowing.


              Brown Rice Step 1
1

Measure rice accurately using the plastic measuring cup that came with your Zojirushi rice cooker. Fill rice above the brim, then level off the cup. Now add to the inner cooking pan.

Fill the pan with cold water and quickly rinse the rice once to remove any debris, and drain.

3

Add water to the corresponding water level for “BROWN” or if the rice cooker does not have the “BROWN” setting, use the plastic measuring cup used to measure the rice and add 1-1/2 times the amount of water to rice (If cooking 2 cups of rice, add 3 cups of water). Make sure the rice is completely submerged and leveled to ensure even cooking.

*For a softer texture, slightly increase the amount of water.

Wipe off excess water from the outside of the inner cooking pan and place in the rice cooker. Close the lid securely and plug in the rice cooker. Select the “BROWN” setting. For rice cookers without the “BROWN” setting, allow the rice to soak for 30 minutes. Press START.

When cooking completes, for Micom or IH rice cookers open the lid and use the nonstick rice spatula to fluff the rice. For conventional rice cookers, allow the cooked rice to ‘rest’ for 15 minutes before opening the lid. Use the nonstick rice spatula to serve. Enjoy!
