Genmai (Brown Rice) Recipe - Japanese Cooking 101

Rinse the brown rice under cold water until the water runs clear.

In a medium pot, combine the rinsed brown rice, water, and salt.

Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.

Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and cover the pot with a lid.

Simmer for about 45-50 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed.

Remove the pot from heat and let it sit, covered, for 10 minutes to steam.

Fluff the rice with a fork before serving.
