Perfect Oven-Baked Brown Rice

1. 1

   Place oven rack in middle position. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

2. 2

   Bring the water to a boil. Keep the water covered as it boils so you don't lose too much as steam.

3. 3

   When the oven is at 375, put the water, rice, and salt into an ovenproof pot with a tight-fitting lid. I have successfully used pyrex dishes and cast-iron dutch ovens. If you don't have a good lid, you can also use a double layer of foil. Just make sure it's sealed well around the edges.

4. 4

   Pop it in the oven.

5. 5

   The rice is done when it is tender and the water is all gone. It usually takes an hour. When it's done, fluff it with a fork and serve. Yum! So simple and good!
