Make Your Own Sprouted Brown Rice
- 1 as much (to taste) Brown rice (organic if possible)
- 1 Bottled water (or filtered water)
- You can use tap water to rinse the rice well.
- Drain.
- Put the brown rice in a clean container, and add enough bottled water to cover.
- Don't cover with a lid.
- Cover with a kitchen towel or a piece of gauze, and secure with an elastic band.
- Leave it in a warm place.
- Every 8 to 12 hours, rinse the rice quickly and change the water every 1 to 3 days.
- I used a yogurt maker set to the lowest temperature setting.
- I rinsed the rice 12 hours in and changed the water.
- The rice sprouted in about 24 hours.
- I also tried putting the rinsed brown rice in a thermos with 40 C lukewarm wter.
- I rinsed the rice and changed the water after 8 to 12 hours.
- The rice sprouted in 24 to 32 hours.
- I also tried my bread machine's "natural yeast fermentation" setting, using the same procedure as for the thermos.
- The rice sprouted in 32 to 48 hours.
- I sprout 2 to 3 rice cooker cups of rice (360 to 540 ml) and turn it into rejuvelac or leaven.
- Not all the rice grains will germinate.
- If about 80% of them have sprouted, it's good.
- Addendum: If the rice sprouts too much the flavor will get worse, so if the tiny tip of the sprout pokes out of the grain, it's done.
