Roasting short grain brown rice is a simple process that can elevate the flavor and texture of your rice dishes. Here’s how you can do it:
Preheat the oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure that it is hot enough to roast the rice evenly
Spread the rice: Spread the short grain brown rice in an even layer on a baking sheet. This will allow the rice to roast uniformly and develop a golden, crunchy texture
Roast the rice: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the rice for 10-15 minutes, or until it turns a light golden brown. Keep a close eye on it to prevent burning
Cool the roasted rice: Once the rice reaches the desired color and crunchiness, remove it from the oven and let it cool completely before using it in your recipes
