I was reading one of the treads...something was said about microwave Brown rice is not allowed. Is this so and why? I don't recall ever reading this in my book or in my cookbooks. Can someone help with this question?


Thanks, Rosemary

I think what was actually said was that microwave cooking may not work with brown rice, as it takes quite a bit longer to cook.

This is what I was asking about...Uncle Ben's Ready Whole Grain Rice..Whole Grain Brown Microwave in the Pouch. It is just me so these are so covenant and they are very good. I like the Brown and Wild mix.
