Tuesday Tip: Baked Brown Rice

I don’t know about you, but getting rice to turn out consistently had always been a problem of mine. I refuse to buy a pressure cooker; because until I have my dream kitchen, I really don’t have room for another appliance that has such limited use. I stumbled upon the Baked Brown Rice recipe from Alton Brown, and all of my problems have been solved. Fluffy, brown rice. Every. Single. Time. No stovetop to watch, no big pot to clean. Just put it in the oven for 60 minutes and forget about it. I still use the Trader Joe’s Frozen Organic Rice in a pinch, but love how this rice has changed my life. And my menus.

  1. Hey Lisa! Thanks for the shout out and great tip about brown rice. John actually bought me a small rice cooker for Christmas, and it truly makes making rice easy, just like your tip. It’s pretty small so it doesn’t take up much room in my cabinet. I am still waiting for that dream kitchen as well. I want one with a HUGE island! xoxo, Jackie
