Yep, takes longer than white rice, but worth the wait.

If you say so. It has an astringent flavor that I don't care for. I
prefer white rice cooked without salt or butter. I'm always overruled
on that, so I usually eat it with salt and butter. Once in a while
we use sesame oil instead of butter. Either way, I often sprinkle
furikake on it.

Heck, I always thought it was just me who thought brown rice was astringent.
Nobody else ever said anything about it so I just thought it was my taste
buds and just shied away from brown rice.

Astringent? Maybe because of all the arsenic in American rice? I've
never had astringent brown rice.

Everybody's sensory equipment is different. Perhaps you are less sensitive
to that taste. Perhaps you enjoy it.

Astringent makes you pull a face if it's strong. Brown rice doesn't
have that at all for me. It's not that I enjoy it.

I also find some aged cheeses astringent. It took me a long while to
warm up to Gruyere.

I like several varieties of whole grain rice - but 'brown' rice isn't
one of them. Just can't get a good texture or flavour from it.
Riceberry is my favourite whole grain rice, and it also happens to be
the healthiest too.

I like both types of rice occasionally, but end up using white
jasmine rice most of the time. Nothing in it as all mostly, but
sometimes a very small amount of gravy if there's any on the table.
