Notes
This recipe is a great opportunity to help out Future You by preparing and freezing brown rice for later.
- Put 1/2 cup portions into a dozen 8 ounce containers. Then store the containers in the freezer in extra-large freezer bags. That way they don't get lost in the freezer depths.
- When reheating rice in the microwave, add a splash of water and leave the lid on loosely. The rice will steam up just as good as fresh rice.
- The instructions remain the same, except the cook time is just 5 minutes.
