Does anyone know if there are any good brands of microwavable rice?

Never had a problem microwaving any long grain rice....
My proportions are 1 portion rice, 2 portions water, pinch of salt optional...

i.e., I still use for the above amounts, my old corningwave 2-1/2 quarter,
5 minuutes on high, 10 minutes memory at 50 % ..... set aside, while
finishing other chores.... then fluff with a fork, just minutes before
serving time, and reheat if needed, a couple of minutes at 15 to 25%
****Also, results depend on the container you are microwaving with...

I suppose you could microwave any rice as long as you experiment
with the water/rice ratio and have some kind of good container that
lets a little stem out of it, then suctions itself closed (as
happens with rice on the stove).

You might want to ensure that any plastic container you use has no BPA
in it.

There aren't any decent microwaveable rice brands. Don't be lazy and make it from scratch! Do it the right way

Tell that to the initial poster! I use my rice cooker and would never
consider using a microwave. There's nothing wrong with just boiling
water and rice either.

Your both right!!! But...............I'd rather "SET IT AND FORGET IT".......
As I too have boiled, and have a rice cooker,
they both need more setup time and, and cleanup time.
With corningware, just swish it under water with an old face cloth.....

while i prefer my cheap little el rice maker for rice, i have cooked it in
the nuker, don't fall for the "micro" rices, use whtever you like in the way
of taste and follow the directions you see in the post immediately folowing
yours, Lee
