brown rice

🥗Healthier: quinoa

💰Cheaper: white rice

Quinoa is higher in protein, while white rice is often less expensive.

The night before you plan to cook the rice, rinse and soak it. To do this, place the rice and millet in a medium size pot. Cover with water and swish it around. Pour the water off while catching the grain in a fine mesh strainer. Rinse it again a few more times. Place the rinsed grains back in the pot. Cover with fresh water. Add a few drops of apple cider vinegar.

In the morning, drain the rice and millet in a strainer. Rinse it and place it back in the pot. Add the 2 ½ cups of water and a pinch of sea salt.

Place the pot on the stove and bring to a boil, uncovered, over medium high heat. Once it comes to a full boil, reduce the heat to simmer on low, covered, for 1 hour. Check it periodically and if it looks like it’s going dry on the bottom add a small splash of water to prevent burning and sticking to the bottom.

Once the rice/millet is finished cooking, gently fluff with a fork and transfer to a bowl to cool. Serve as it is or with your favorite toppings like gomasio, toasted seeds or whatever you enjoy.
