Ingredients

  • 2 c uncooked brown rice
  • c low sodium vegetable or chicken broth
  • Tbsp white miso paste
  • ¼ tsp black pepper

Instructions

Pressure Cooker Method

  • Combine 2 cups of brown rice with 2 ½ cups broth in the pressure cooker. Set the timer on the pressure cooker to 22 minutes.
  • When the rice is done, allow the pressure to vent naturally, which will take about 10 minutes. Use the quick release valve after 10 minutes if there is still steam to vent.
  • Once the pressure has equalized, fluff the rice with a fork. Add 1 ½ tablespoons of white miso paste and ¼ teaspoon black rice. Stir to incorporate. Remove the rice from the pressure cooker and serve.

Rice Cooker Method

  • Combine 2 cups of brown rice and 5 cups broth in the rice cooker. Put the lid on and flip the switch down to start cooking.  The rice will cook about 30 to 35 minutes, at which point the rice cooker will chime or release the switch to the starting position.
  • Let the rice rest 10 minutes before fluffing and mixing in miso paste and black pepper. Serve.

Stove-Top Method

  • Combine 2 cups of brown rice with 5 cups of broth. Bring the liquid to a boil and then reduce heat to a simmer. Maintain a simmer for the duration of cooking. Cook covered for approximately 40 to 45 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed.
  • Remove the pan from heat and let it cool with the lid on for about 10 minutes.  Fluff the rice with a fork and add the miso paste and black pepper. Serve.
