This recipe is the answer to so many of my brown rice prayers. Normally my brown rice either comes our crunchy, or a big gloppy mess. I have never been able to find a happy middle for my brown rice until now. I found a recipe online that claimed to be the perfect brown rice. I seriously had my doubts. I haven’t found a perfect way to cook brown rice to date so why would I now? Who knew I would this time. 

This recipe turned out awesome!! I love anything that I can cook ahead and have it ready to go at any time and I love that I can make a large quantity of brown rice at the same time. In order to make a good fried rice you have to have odder cooked rice that has cooled. This is perfect!
