I'm not Genie;-), but I have been using a rice cooker for brown rice for

years and years. I also cook lentils and millet in it. It works great.

I have a small one (can makes 8 cups of rice) that ran around $40-50 years

ago. I think they might be more popular now, and more companies (mine's an

Oster) might make them, and the price might be even lower than it was then.

But they are worth it fer shur;-). I just saw there are some up for auction

on Ebay.

You can buy veggie steamers that come with rice bowls where you can steam rice. That way you can kill two birds with one stone. Black & decker puts out a few good ones for around $20.

I have just read this. There is also 'Wild Rice' and a Red coloured

rice which tastes kinda nutty. It also stains the pan so be aware

when you cook it.

 

Bye for now. Chatty :-)

I think the red rice you're thinking of is wehani rice. I myself like cookign with a wild rice blend from Wild Oats. Much more fiber & nutrients than conventional rice.

There's not going to be much difference if any. The advantage of jasmine rice

is its *flavour* ;=) I however prefer basmati if I'm going to eat white rice.

Speaking of rice, I really enjoy the Pilaf rice that I frequently order when I eat out, which is also very frequent. The rice seems larger and I wondered how it is prepared. Thanks, Ralph

Does anyone know the nutritional value of jasmine rice? Is it better than regular white rice or is it the same thing? I know brown rice is better, but sometimes I just can't help the desire for some white rice! Thanks again, Rebecca

Okay, give me a clue here ;=) What's in the rice - what colour is it - and what

'language' are you eating in?? There are a few different kinds around ;=)

 

Best,

[Guest guest]

first off, I want to say that we are not Gluten free at our house,

so, please disregard this suggestion if it is not okay!

 

We eat a lot of rice here... we love rice!

 

 

we like brown rice with a little granulated garlic, braggs amino

acids, nutritional yeast and Flax meal.

 

I also like to add to that some walnuts,

 

sometimes I also add a dab of mustard >>> (don't knock it till ya try

it! LOL)

 

or instead of mustard, I like a little bit of tahini.

 

I like rice with veggies...

 

(and any or all of the above )

 

I like rice! =)

Jasmine is my fav, regardless of what style dish I am making. I buy it in

25 lb bags!

 

I like to top it with an Indian or Thai curry. A variety of pastes can be

purchased at ethnic grocers and sometimes in the international section of

regular grocers (in glass jars and cans both). Then the paste is added to

coconut milk. real easy to do.

 

I also like to add dry cherries, or cranberries, and a touch of sweetener to

the steamer with the dry rice and water. Nice dessert (or breakfast, even.

 

And there is always veggie sushi!

We eat a lot of rice. My children love it as follows:

2 Tbsp olive, or coconut oil in skillet, add

chopped garlic, onions, celery, and carrots(cut into small cubes)

saute about 5 min. to blend the flavors, then add a quart (4 cups) of

chopped tomatoes, add to 6 cups of pre-cooked rice, season with garlic

salt (or favortie seasoning) and parsley. Heat until most of the

liquid is absorbed.

This sounds delicious!

 

You said " Heat until most of the liquid is absorbed " . Does this mean like 10

minutes? With a lid on?

 

Thank you for the recipe. I'd love to try this!

Hello Toshiko; This recipe is very versatile. I use about 3

cups of chopped vegs. You can use any of your favorite vegs. We

like the vegetables a little on the crunchy side, some people love

their vegs. tender, ( they could be cooked longer before you mix

everything together) and you could add another 2 cups of vegetable

broth, or canned tomatoes (a total of 6 cups of liquid) and bake it

a little longer, all depending on what kind of flavour and texture

you would like. I put a lid on it and heat it for aprox. 25-30

min. at 350 degrees. I hope you will experiment with it, and enjoy

it everytime you make it. The best to you.

[Guest guest]

Thank you for your explanation!! I sure will try on it!

I am afraid that you might be shopping in the wrong store if all you

can find is instant rice.

 

Usually sticky or glutinous rice is also called short grain rice. It

is usually available in stores that cater to Asians. Short grain

rice is used in sushi and is used a lot in Japanese cooking. A lot

of it is raised in the Sacramento valley in California near

Sacramento.

 

Where I shop there are many varieties rice, including short and long

grain, brown rice and white. They have it in packages and in bulk.

I usually buy basmati rice, a fragrant rice originally from India.

Not that I'm shopping in the wrong stores, it's the limitation of the few stores

we have. It's in the heart of the " Molly McGuire " land. Mostly Irish and

eastern European. Home of Yuengling Brewery, the oldest brewery in the USA,

start of the anthracite coal regions of Eastern Pennsylvania. Fantastic folks,

quite often I still hear " old timers' speaking Pennsylvani Dutch to one another,

we're transfers, my wife and I and stayed because we love the region and the

people. The main dishes around here are Irish, Polish, Italian and Pennsylvania

Deutch. We go to different Fire Houses just about every Sunday for eggs,

potatoes. We go to the ethnic block parties for the various ethnic dishes when

ever there is a block party. The town we live in has grass seperating the main

square and we have no stop lights. Norman Rockwell would have thought he died

and went to heaven.
