Cooking Brown Rice In Crock Pot
Brown rice (or "hulled rice") is unmilled or partly milled rice, a kind of whole, natural grain. It has a mild nutty flavor, is chewier and more nutritious than white rice, and becomes rancid much more quickly. Any rice, including long-grain, short-grain, or sticky rice, may be eaten as brown rice.
Unpolished rice with only the husk of the grain removed
unpolished rice retaining the yellowish-brown outer layer
is the most balanced of all the whole grains and is also gluten free. Unpolished whole natural brown rice is higher in minerals, protein and flavor than white rice.

Ginger Shitake Pork Bowl
One of the nice things about the local organic grocery is it sells fresh noodles by the pound. I snagged some whole wheat lomein and began cooking in my head from there.
2 pounds pork, cubed
1 T ground ginger
1 t ground nutmeg
1 t ground allspice
2 T sesame oil
1 t salt
1 t black pepper
Vegetable oil
1 large piece fresh ginger, minced
1 onion, minced
3 large cloves garlic, minced
1 jalapeno pepper, sliced
1 package dried shitake mushrooms
1 qt chicken stock
1)Toss pork in spices and oil. Allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes.
2)Brown pork in vegetable oil in batches.
3)In the same pan you cooked the pork, cook onion, garlic, ginger and jalapeno until onions are translucent.
4)While onion cooks, refresh mushrooms in 1/2c of the chicken stock.
5)Mix pork and aromatics in crock pot with the rest of the chicken stock. Add mushrooms refreshed mushrooms.
6)Braise for 3 hours at least.
7)Serve over rice or as in my case, boil up some fresh lomein from the nice Korean grocery down the street and serve it on that. Drizzle with some soy sauce.
