I use chicken stock in place of some or all of the water (depending how much stock is in the box in the fridge at the time).

Tip: I use a bundt pan to bake my rice in, and the extra surface area (more heat contact for the rice) reduces the baking time to 40 minutes.

Other variables that might affect the rice: the age, variety and freshness of the rice itself; the oven temperature; the baking dish. Cooking is 'easy' but there are more variables than we might think. <BR/><BR/>As for wheatberries, I'd love to know!Alanna Kellogghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12869948243694610558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11944565.post-78323174780263559062009-01-06T15:30:00.000-06:002009-01-06T15:30:00.000-06:00Great recipe!

Most rice crops are sprayed with mercury compounds, and it's only by the dehusking that it's removed. So white rice, since the mercury- contaminated husk is removed, is actually more healthy than sprayed brown rice.It makes sense when you think about it, but, alas, no food writers seem to.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11944565.post-91321934706429739692008-03-17T19:23:00.000-05:002008-03-17T19:23:00.000-05:00I've had awful luck cooking brown rice before.

Like most cooked rice however (or at least rice of certain sorts, I'm forgetting which) it is definitely lightest right from the oven. So just know that ahead of time, especially if thinking about making ahead. Let me know how it goes!
