Japanese Genmai Recipe ( 玄米 )

TRADITIONAL JAPANESE RECIPE: Genmai, or brown rice, is of course the healthier choice than its white counterpart.

Brown rice has a nutty flavor and chewy texture. Brown rice has a lot of fiber and nutrients like vitamins and minerals. So if you want to eat rice everyday, brown rice is a better choice.

The reason why brown rice seems hard is because of the outer layer, bran and germ. The good news is inside the brown shell is the same tasty white rice. How you cook the brown rice makes a big difference in texture. Soaking longer and cooking with extra water helps. And also cooking in a heavy closed pot works better to create some pressure on the rice.
