Rice And Whole Grains For Rice Cooker - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups white rice
2 tablespoons hominy grits
2 tablespoons buckwheat groats
2 tablespoons brown rice
2 tablespoons millet
water
1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)

Preparation

In the morning, measure grains and lentils into rice cooker, adding water to cover. Vary whole grains as desired, to total 1/2 cup. Allow to soak all day. (The soaking will allow the whole grains to cook tender in the normal rice cooker cycle).
About 45 minutes before dinner, drain off the soaking water (this is only necessary if your are using beans--to throw most of the gas-producing stuff down the drain). Add water to 3/4-inch above the surface of the grain. Measure by placing the tip of your index finger on the surface of the rice--water should be up to the first knuckle.
Sprinkle in salt if desired. Start the rice cooker. It will be ready by dinner time.
