Notes
- This recipe works well with all types of black rice. We tested Forbidden black rice, Thai black rice, Japonica black rice, and glutenous black rice.
- For glutenous black rice, increase the cooking time to 21 minutes.
- You don’t need to rinse the black rice unless you feel it has debris.
- If you do rinse the rice first, you will only need 1 cup of water for every cup of black rice.
