Ive never had luck trying to cook brown rice. My white rice comes out perfect. Ive tried different ways to make brown rice and its never right. When i cook it in my high end Sanyo Rice cooker its crunchy. Tonight i made rice and it was a soupy mess. This is how i made the rice.
2 cups of brown rice
1 can chicken stock
1 can beef stock
4 tablespoons orange juice concentrate
I let the rice soak in the stock for 4 hours. I turned the pan onto medium and then waited for it to boil. I then put the lid, turned the burner to low, and waited 45-50 minutes. When i lifted the rice was a soupy mess. What in the world am i doing wrong? Per directions on the rice you should put 2.5 cups per 1 cup of rice. I used 4 cups of liquid for 2 cups of brown rice + 4 tablespoons of orange juice concentrate (which should have not added up to that much liquid). What could i be doing wrong? Is brown rice that hard to cook?
thanks,
Ncage
