Guest guest Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 I've read that you can soak and sprout organic brown rice, but I've never tried it. Supposedly you soak it for about 9 hours, then rinse once a day for 3-5 days. You can also, supposedly, soak organic brown rice for 2 days ( I'd soak it in the regigerator, but?) then blend and strain it, and maybe add some agave nectar, for rice milk. Again, I haven't tried it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 I have a question (very possibly a stupid one). When someone says " soak for so long, then rinse so often for such and so a period of time, " does that mean when the soaking time is over, you pour that water off and store the food somewhere " dry " (as in, not in water)? Sorry if this is ridiculously simple, but I honestly have never really understood the concept!

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 Hi Carolyn, not a stupid question. If somethings says, for instance, soak for 8 hours then sprout for 2 days, rinsing 2x per day, what you would do is this: Put the item in question into a bowl of water to soak for 8 hours, use plenty of water because it will soak up a lot and the item will expand so you want to have enough water. Then drain and rinse, then they will be wet but not sitting in water, then you rinse twice a day but you're draining off the water and they will sit in the bowl wet from the rinsing but not sitting in water...

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 The 'rinse so often' means changing the water. If one continues to soak the grains, seeds or nuts in the water for long time, the water will go bad and it will stink. Hence, one has to change the water and put in fresh water. It's basically - you drain the existing water and put in fresh water. Hope this helps ! Cheers, - Hemant. Photos Got holiday prints? See all the ways to get quality prints in your hands ASAP.
