Ingredients
  

  • 8 - 10 cups water (or broth)
  • 1 cup brown rice
  • salt (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Fill a large pot with 8 to 10 cups of water (or broth). Bring to a boil on high heat.
  • Meanwhile measure and rinse 1 cup of brown rice. Add rice to boiling water, stir, and continue boiling for 30 minutes.
  • Remove the pot from the heat. Drain the rice and return it to the pot. Cover it with a fitted lid (or aluminum foil) and allow it to rest for 10 minutes. (This allows the steam from inside the pot to finish cooking the rice.)
  • After the full 10 minutes, fluff with a fork, salt to taste, and serve.
