does anyone know how much a 1/4 of dry basmati brown rice equals (cup wise) when cooked???...it's kindof like the pasta question that pops up every now and then.

Thanks to anyone that can help

    I think it doubles. Don't quote me on that but I think that is right.

    I heard the same thing...I think it doubles...when you cook it you have to post us and let us know?

    I think white rice tastes much MORE bland. I cook mine with a bit of light margarine and I throw in finely chopped bell peppers just when the water starts to boil. yummy

    Definitely boil in some type of stock..chix, beef, veg...then I like to put a little tomato paste and parm cheese....and some olive oil
