Tokyo Five Grain Recipe

By Mom_s

Ingredients

• 1 cup short or medium grain brown rice
• 1 cup red Bhutanese rice
• 1 cup millet
• 1/3 cup quinoa
• 1/4 cup amaranth
• 2 teaspoons salt

Preparation

Step 1

Rinse the rices, millet, and quinoa. Drain and put in a large thick-bottomed pot. Stir in the salt and amaranth. Cover with water up to your knuckle - about two inches above the grains. Bring to a boil, then turn down the flame as low as it will go. Cook uncovered (simmering) until all water is gone, about 45 minutes.

If you overshot the amount of water you added and your grains cook before the water absorbs entirely, strain off any extra water.

This makes a big pot of mixed grains. Plenty for multiple meals.
