Most of the time we use a rice cooker at our restaurant to cook our brown rice. But being in the jungle of Paksong, we do have power failures every now and then and rice cookers need electricity. So, here is how to cook your brown rice on your stove.
PERFECT BROWN RICE
Prep Time: 2 minutes - Cook Time: 30 minutes - Total Time: 32 minutes (plus 10 minutes for steaming) - Makes: 3 cups of rice
INGREDIENTS

6 cups water
Salt, soy sauce or other desired seasonings, to taste
EQUIPMENT
Measuring cups
A pot for cooking the rice
PREPARATION
Rinse the rice under running water to remove excess starch.

Bring a large pot of water to boil.
