Some helpful tips when cooking Grains, from the Old Farmer's Almanac. Love this sight!
Cooking Tips for Grains:
* Remember to use a heavy saucepan with a tight-fitting lid.
* Rinse the grains thoroughly.
* Bring the water to a boil, add the grain, and return to a boil.
* Reduce the heat, cover, and simmer for the indicated time.
* Once all the water is absorbed, fluff the grain with a fork, replace the cover, remove from the heat, and let sit for about 15 minutes.
* When cooking grains for salads, reduce the cooking times slightly so they retain a chewy texture.
