Brown Rice (Uncooked) Conversion: Cups to Grams

Brown rice is whole-grain rice with only the husk removed, retaining the bran and germ layers. It has a chewier texture, nuttier flavour, and more nutrients than white rice. It takes longer to cook (40–50 minutes vs. 15–20 minutes) and absorbs slightly more water. It is a good source of fibre, manganese, and magnesium.
