I have no suggestions since I don't eat brown rice. A lot of people around
here do eat the stuff. I never thought I'd see the day when Asians would eat
brown rice but it has come to pass. Then again, I never thought I'd see the
day when cats and chickens would congregate. This world is full of
surprises.

I make big batches of brown rice, it's the only rice I cook and eat. I cook up a big pot of it then cool it off and store it in the refrigerator. I have a batch in there right now I just made yesterday.
