HOMEMADE BROWN RICE HOT CEREAL

Homemade Brown Rice Hot Cereal image

Another Cookgirl original! A nutritious, hearty breakfast cereal much less expensive to make at home instead of buying at the supermarket. I live off this in the cold winter months. Really delicious used in various bread recipes. Also can use basmati, jasmine or regular white rice, but brown is the healthiest.

Time 10m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 2

Ingredients

4 cups short-grain brown rice or 4 cups long grain brown rice
1/4 teaspoon salt (optional)

Steps:

In clean, dry skillet (preferably cast iron) toast brown rice on medium heat. Lower heat if rice starts to smoke.
Toast rice for about 10 minutes, stirring constantly so that grains do not burn. Rice should turn a medium brown. Set aside to cool slightly.
In blender fitted with steel blade, or in grain mill or food processor grind browned rice to the consistency of medium coarse cornmeal (grainy but not powdered.).
The grinding process will have to be done in 3/4 cup portions to allow the rice grains to grind effectively.
To store: Place ground rice cereal in airtight container or "ziploc" bag. The cereal must be kept either refrigerated or frozen. Brown rice goes rancid quickly if stored in cupboard.
To prepare hot cereal: (1 serving/thick consistency*).
In small saucepan with 1 cup of rapidly boiling, salted water gradually add 1/3 cup scant of prepared brown rice cereal using a fork to stir well. *For thinner consistency cereal, either increase amount of water, or reduce amount of cereal. Continue to cook rice on high for about 30 seconds breaking up any lumps. Reduce heat until boiling subsides, cover pan tightly and simmer for 10 minutes.
Serve with your favorite toppings if desired. Season with salt if necessary. My favorite additions are toasted nuts, raisins and cardamom!

Tips:

For a creamier cereal, use whole milk or half-and-half instead of water.
Sweeten the cereal to your taste with honey, maple syrup, or sugar.
Add a pinch of salt to enhance the flavor of the cereal.
Top the cereal with your favorite nuts, seeds, and dried fruits.
For a more decadent cereal, add a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.
