Tips For Cooking Brown Rice

When cooking anything in a rice cooker, I always spray the insert with cooking spray. For brown rice, I've had success by adding water up to the next line. For example, when cooking 4 measures of brown rice, I add water up to the line that says 5.

When the cooker is finished (the lever pops over to warm instead of cook), I unplug the cooker and wait at least 30 minutes. This seems to "settle" the rice, especially the grains on top. I open it and stir the rice, and put the lid back on for another 15-20 minutes.

Another important tip I learned from my son is to NEVER wash the insert in the dishwasher. This is especially important with the older, non-stick models (like mine). The dishwasher detergent does something to the finish which causes rice to stick and burn horribly, even if it's sprayed with nonstick cooking spray.
