  • 1 1/2 cup vegetable stock
  • 1 tsp bay leaf

Directions:

  1. Steamed Fluffy Rice
  2. Makes 2 cups
  3. Learn this recipe and you?ll never need another. It works equally well with white or brown rice, jasmine or basmati. Just remember that brown rice takes longer to cook than white, so time your rice accordingly. Of the brown rice varieties, long-grain brown rice is easier to cook. The short-grain brown rice, also called California brown rice, has a tasty nutty flavor and a somewhat chewy texture as well as a longer cooking time: 30 minutes.
  4. 3/4 cup brown, jasmine, or basmati rice, rinsed and drained
  5. 1 1/2 cups vegetable broth or water
  6. 1 bay leaf
  7. Combine the rice, broth or water, and bay leaf in a medium-size pot set over medium heat; simmer, covered, for 20 minutes for white jasmine rice, 25 minutes for brown basmati rice, 25-30 minutes for long-grain brown rice or brown jasmine rice, or 30 minutes for short-grain brown (California) rice-or until the liquid has been absorbed and the rice is tender. Remove from the heat, discard the bay leaf, and fluff with a fork; keep warm until ready to serv
