I want to make the following recipe.
I have some questions though.
1. according to the ingredients the brown rice is uncooked.
It says that the brown rice should be done in 25 minutes. I have never
had my brown rice done in that short a time unless I soaked it for an hour.
My rice unsoaked takes about 45 minutes.
How are they accomplishing this any ideas.
2. I want to substitute walnuts for the almonds anyone see any problems
with doing so?
3. I want to add about 1/2 cup of greens like cabbage? I think this
should add about 5 minutes to the recipe. Am I on the right track?
Thanks.
