Equipment
1 Instant Pot
Ingredients
1 ½cupsBrown Rice(I prefer long grain)
1 ¾cupWater
¼-½tspSalt
Instructions
Soak brown rice for 15 minutes. Then drain and rinse thoroughly in a fine mesh strainer and add to Instant pot along with 1 ¾ cup of fresh water and salt. Feel free to double this recipe if more rice is desired.
Seal lid and set Instant Pot to cook at High Pressure for 22 minutes. Allow a 10 minute release, then manually release pressure valve. Let the rice rest another 10 minutes before fluffing.
Enjoy rice immediately or refrigerate in a well-sealing container for up to 5 days.
Notes
Don't forget to refrigerate leftover rice promptly! Rice (as well as beans) are prone to bacteria that causes food-borne illness if left out for over two hours.
