How to Make 8 Grain Mix
- Choose your desired quantity: This recipe is easily scalable. The suggested ratio is 1 cup of grain mix per 2 cups of rice.
- Combine: Mix your chosen amount of 8-Grain Mix with an equal amount of jasmine or basmati rice (by volume).
- Add water: Add an equal amount of water to the combined rice and grain mix. For example, if you use 1 cup of grain mix and 1 cup of rice, add 2 cups of water.
- Cook: Cook in a rice cooker until all the water is absorbed and the grains are tender (approximately 15 minutes).
- Sushi Magic (optional): For sushi rice, gently stir in a mixture of ⅓ cup rice vinegar, 2 tablespoons sugar, and 1 teaspoon salt to the cooled rice and grain blend.
- Serve and enjoy! Try this mix as a side dish with our smoky risotto recipe (link to recipe if available) for an unforgettable meal!
