I guess if I were you, and I could afford it, I would buy myself another rice/vegetable steamer/cooker to replace the broken one.<BR/><BR/>However, having said that, I will add that for just the two of us, I usually use the Uncle Ben's Ready Rice -- the whole grain brown rice variety. It makes enough for 2 people and only takes 90 seconds in the microwave. And it is not gummy. You can very often find coupons for it, too. This is especially helpful when making rice to serve with a crockpot meal. Everything can be quickly ready at the same time.<BR/><BR/>Hope this helps a little bit. Thanks for stopping by my kitchen table -- please drop by and visit anytime!<BR/><BR/>God bless,<BR/>Mrs.TMrs.Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00392321745556290343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15265988.post-17612939586377043092007-09-04T11:55:00.000-04:002007-09-04T11:55:00.000-04:00Can you please tell me how you cook your brown ric...Can you please tell me how you cook your brown rice. I cooked it for years and then someone gave me a rice/vegetable steamer/cooker and it cooked the brown rice wonderfully. Now that it is broken I have started cooking it again on the stove and it just doesn't seem to turn out good. It is too gummy. Can you help?<BR/><BR/>Thanks,<BR/>JoanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
