Aromatic Rice

Ingredients

  • 1 Cup brown, organic rice
  • 5 Cloves
  • 1 Star Anise
  • Orange peel

Preparation

  1. Soak a cup of rice in plenty of water for 30 minutes or more to help remove the the Arsenic rice naturally accumulates from the soil (even organic).
  2. Drain the rice cover with fresh water. Add cloves and star anise directly to the rice, or in a tea bag for easy clean up. If you have an orange, add a slice of peel too!
  3. After your rice is cooked (times vary by type of rice) drain the water leaving rice in the pot. Place a linen towel taught over the pot with the lid holding the towel in place. Turn off the heat and let steam for 5-10 minutes.
