What is brown rice?
How different is it to white rice? Brown rice is unprocessed rice. It is brown because the outer layer of the grain has not been removed yet. It is removed by milling when the outer part is polished leaving the grain to be white. This processed rice is then called white rice.
The difference between brown rice and white rice are also clearly in texture, taste as well as in nutritional and health benefits. And when cooking brown rice, you will immediately realize that it takes twice as much time to cook than white rice. But there are obvious nutritional and health benefits in eating brown rice.

Co je hnědá rýže? Jaký je rozdíl mezi hnědou a bílou rýži?
Hnědá rýže je nezpracovaná rýže. Je hnědé barvy, protože její vnější vrstva zrna ještě nebyla odstraněna. Hnědá část rýže se odstraňuje leštěním, kdy jsou otruby odstraněny a zrno zůstane bílé. Takto zpracovaná rýže se nazývá bílá rýže.
Další velký rozdíl mezi hnědou a bílou rýží je v jejich rozdílné textuře, chuti a ve výživových a zdravotních hodnotách. Při vaření okamžitě zjistíte, že trvá dvakrát tolik času uvařit hnědou rýži. Oproti tomu je bílá rýže k vaření velice jednoduchá. Ale existují zjevné nutriční a zdravotní výhody při konzumaci právě hnědé rýže.
How to cook rice
1. We recommend washing brown rice with slight force under cold water to slight scratch the outer layer of the rice. This will help water to come into the grain and will help it to expand as well as get sweeter.
2. Once brown rice is washed, please put in the pressure cook or stainless pot. For 150 grams of brown rice, put 250 ml water. For 300 grams, 500 ml. For 450 grams, 750 ml water for best result.
3. It is highly recommended to let the brown rice sit in cold water for at least 6 hours, preferably in the fridge.
4. When cooking in a pressure pot, let it cook for approximately 10 minutes until the steam starts coming out, then put on medium mild and cook for another 10 minutes. Turn off and then let it sit in the pot until all pressure is gone. When cooking in a stainless pot, please follow the same step from 1. to 3. and then start cooking in high and once boiling turn down to medium and cook about 25 to 30 minutes. Then let the rice sit for another 10 minutes.
5. Brown rice should be cooked and ready to serve. Please enjoy our rice.
Attention:
Rice should be stored in a cool and dry place. Avoid sun, water and moisture. Rice absorbs the smell of fish and meat, and should be stored away from these.
