Tips

  • Soak your rice for a few hours before cooking to help with digestion and nutrient absorption.
  • Freeze leftover rice and reheat it before eating to build resistant starch, which is good for gut health and lowers blood sugar spikes.
  • After stovetop cooking, let the rice sit with the lid on (heat turned off) for 10 minutes to finish steaming.
