Brown short grain
The ultimate most nutritious way to cook brown rice.
Rinse brown rice to get rid of dust and impurities.
Soak overnight for about 20 hours for germination to start. Witch makes for more complete amino acids to be available for the body’s absorbtion.
If you do this method witch you should as often as possible, the water rice ratio needs to be reduced by 20% water. Because that is roughly how much water got absorbed by the grain. A minimum of 8 hours will also be sufficient, if you do not have the time.
