[quote=Anonymous]I always had trouble getting rice the right texture and to get all the water absorbed using the stove top method. I'm sure all of the PPs are right that a rice cooker is the easiest way to go but I didn't want to buy and store another gadget. My friend told me a great way to make rice in the oven. It's so easy and consistently perfect.

Here's the recipe from America's test kitchen:

1 1?2 cups long-grain brown rice, medium-grain brown rice, or short-grain brown rice 
2 1?3 cups water
2 teaspoons unsalted butter or vegetable oil
1?2 teaspoon table salt

INSTRUCTIONS
1. Adjust oven rack to middle position; heat oven to 375 degrees. Spread rice in 8-inch-square glass baking dish.
2. Bring water and butter or oil to boil, covered, in medium saucepan over high heat; once boiling, immediately stir in salt and pour water over rice. Cover baking dish tightly with doubled layer of foil. Bake rice 1 hour, until tender.
3. Remove baking dish from oven and uncover. Fluff rice with dinner fork, then cover dish with clean kitchen towel; let rice stand 5 minutes. Uncover and let rice stand 5 minutes longer; serve immediately [/quote]
