Basic Baked Brown Rice

Recipe from Good Food, Great Medicine

(Makes about 5-6 cups cooked brown rice)

4 cups water
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups brown basmati rice

Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
1. Bring the water to a brisk boil in a heavy 2½-quart pot. Stir in salt and rice and bring
back to the boil. Cover and place in the oven for 60 minutes.
2. Remove from the oven and leave it covered for 10 minutes, then take off lid and fluff
cooked rice with a fork, loosening it from the sides of the pot at the same time. Cover
with a towel (a paper towel works fine) until cool.
3. Whatever you don’t use the same day, store in the refrigerator, covered tightly. (Make
sure rice is completely cool before you cover it.) Keeps well for a week.
