Cooking Brown Rice

How the FUCK do I cook brown rice? I just watched several youtube videos and checked several google results (all on the top of the searches) and every single one of them said something different.

-Leave it uncovered!
-Be sure to cover it!
-Cook it for 45 minutes!
-You only need to cook it for 20 minutes!
-Be sure to use 2 cups of water for every cup of rice!
-Use 2 and a half cups of water for each cup of rice!
-Be sure to check it early so it doesn't get burnt!
-Don't remove the lid too early or you'll ruin it!

Fuck brown rice. Just eat potatoes, they're easy as fuck and one of the most nutritionally complete foods in existence.

put it in the fucking pot, take a bit outside after 20 minutes, if its hard keep cooking.

If there isnt much water left: add some.
Its not that hard

Bitch I didn't ask for your dogshit advice about some fucking potatoes

>take a bit outside after 20 minutes
Doesn't it get cooked differently in different layers? Won't the top or bottom get done first? Doesn't removing the lid fuck it all up?

Have fun eating your shitty meme food. I hear it pairs really well with plain chicken breast.

Have fun with your potato body.

No?
Just add the rice when the water is boiling.
In order to let it cook equal in all layers it ha to be covered.
when you see, that its about to be good/ready, let the water "boil out"

>when you see, that its about to be good/ready, let the water "boil out"

How do I "let" the water boil out? You mean just leave it sitting longer?

>Hurr you have to eat brown rice to be a bodybuilder
Is it new in here?

Yes
Now go and cook that shit.
Cover it up in water, after 20min take first bite, and see how it is..
not complicated..didnt your mother teach you how to cook?

>cuckoo
>cuck oo
>cuck
Nice try liberal scum

>didnt your mother teach you how to cook?

No she didn't. I'm undoing a lifetime of being a spoiled sheltered shithead.

2 to 1 water to rice (you can use a bit more/less water if you like your rice softer/firmer)
boil water
stir in rice, cover, reduce heat to low

when there is no more water visible its done
remove from heat, stir and let sit for 5 min

how can you fuck this up

>how can you fuck this up

You just don't know...

Trips spoke truth.

Sorry for that..also isnt there a manual on the back of ricebag?

>also isnt there a manual on the back of ricebag?

Yes, and it says the same thing as except it calls for 45 to 50 minutes. Pretty fuckhuge difference. What am I supposed to believe?

Oops, I thought his post said 20 minutes.

Fuck it. I give up. Going to Pizza Hut.

You do what stands on the manual, everything else remains the same...oh fuck please tell me this is some kind of trolling..

>not able to make food for yourself
>not going to make it

Depends on the rice. Don't worry about the time, just check it every now and again after 20.
The worst that can happen is you leave it on the heat after the water is gone for a bit too long and its kinda dry.

you got me user :,(

I just dont care anymore. Brown rice has ruined my life!

You suck at life like mike o' hearn sucks at pretending to be natty

Buy a rice cooker and put rice in it then pour water in it so there's jsut enough water to cover all the rice with a. Bit floating on top. Then check it every once in w ahile and add more off needed

>getting shitty pizza instead of local meditteranian

>Rinse it
>Fry it with a little olive oil or non-stick cooking spray (I might add garlic or onions here)
>Add water about 2:1 water to rice (Couple taps of Mrs. Dash's ass or some fresh herbs here)
>Bring that shit to a boil
>Bring that shit to a simmer
>Leave it until the water looks like its boiled out (At first you'll probably be checking it too much but you'll eventually figure out how much time it needs for so much water/rice and it'll come out better)
>Turn it off
>Set it aside still covered for a few more minutes (Got to let it absorb any remaining moisture)

Comes out good every time.

put rice in pot
put water in bowl
bring water to boil
stir every few mins
if you like it hard as a fucking diamond then 20min
if /noteeth/ 45 min
drain water
???????????

Here's how I do mine;

Put rice in ceramic dish
Add boiling water until you've just about covered the rice
Add a pinch of salt
Add more boiling water until you have a 2:1 ratio of water to rice (eyeball it)
Cover
Microwave at full power for ten minutes
Stir
Microwave for 5 minute intervals, checking water levels and softness of rice and stirring each time until done.

Simple, and is zero effort so you don't have to worry about it while cooking everything else

read the sticky

>1 cup rice : 1 cup of water
>Heat + bring to boil
>Once it's boiled, low heat for approx 20 mins
>Look at it after, if water still there then let it keep going, if none left, take off heat and let it sit until you want to eat it

Literally that easy you fuckwit

This thread has only served to prove my point. Everyone has a different idea. So fuck it. I just bought a rice cooker.
