Simple Soaked Brown Rice (Gluten-Free)

By Kelly · 66 Comments


If you’re new to soaking grains, this is a great recipe to start with since it’s so easy to prepare and works well with just about any favorite rice-based recipe.

Soaking is a centuries-old method that helps to breakdown the antinutrients and hard-to-digest components of grains, and at the same time, helps to release highly beneficial nutrients. For more about the whys and hows of soaking, please check out “How to Soak Grains for Optimal Nutrition.”

Soaking brown rice and other grains is really very easy! It just takes a little planning ahead. The result is a highly nutritious and easy-to-digest whole-grain food with wonderful robust flavor.

Time-saving Tip: Triple this recipe and refrigerate the leftovers for multiple dishes throughout the week. Below are several of my family’s favorite recipes using soaked brown rice:
• Soaked Brown Rice Breakfast Porridge
• Buttery-Herbed Brown Rice
• Orange Chicken Stir Fry with Broccoli

Simple Soaked Brown Rice

Yield: four 1/2 cup servings

Simple Soaked Brown Rice

Ingredients

  • 1 cup of organic brown rice (I prefer short grain style)
  • 1-2 tsp raw apple cider vinegar (or lemon juice)
  • 2 cups warm filtered water
  • 1/8 teaspoon of Celtic sea salt

Instructions

  1. Add above ingredients to a medium ceramic (or glass) mixing bowl and thoroughly combine.
  2. Cover the bowl and place it in a warm area of your kitchen overnight (8-12 hours).
  3. After soaking time is completed, drain mixture using a fine-mesh strainer and gently rinse.
  4. Place drained rice in medium saucepan and add approximately 1 3/4 cups water (or *bone broth). Bring to a boil. Then, immediately cover and reduce heat until you achieve a gentle simmer.
  5. Cook approximately 25-40 minutes until rice has absorbed the liquid and reached the consistency you desire.

Notes

*Cooking rice in bone broth helps to further mitigate the effects of phytic acid and bone broth in general offers tremendous health benefits. For more information, check out "The Amazing Health Benefits of Bone Broth."

This recipe is a great way to use leftover cooked soaked brown rice. It’s so creamy and delicious, similar in texture to rice pudding. This is a favorite of my youngest son, who says “it’s like having apple pie for breakfast!”
