Is brown Rice OK to use instead of white rice?

Rice Diet - The Residential Clinic
Brown rice actually has some advantages over white rice and we prefer for people to have brown rice on most occasions, unless white rice is the only option. White rice starts out as brown rice, but after the husk, bran and germ are removed, then the starchy core, or endosperm is left. Brown rice has had just the outer husk removed, which is inedible, and because the bran and germ remain, the brown rice has 3.5 grams of fiber per cup of cooked rice, vs. 0.74 grams left in the white rice.

What's the difference between white rice and brown rice?

No Weight Gain Cookbooks / Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
There is all the difference in the world. White rice has been processed and refined which strips the rice of all nutrition. It makes the cooked rice soft, fluffy, and pleasant to eat. "Enriched" white rice is a joke. The manufacturer has replaced some vitamins in the rice, but it is not the same as the original. Eating white rice has a negative effect on most bodies. Whole grain brown rice is just what it implies.

What are the main components of the rice grain?

IRRI - International Rice Research Institute
The rice grain, commonly called a seed, consists of the true fruit or brown rice (caryopsis) and the hull, which encloses the brown rice. Brown rice consists mainly of the embryo and endosperm. The surface of the seed contains several thin layers of differentiated tissues that enclose the embryo and endosperm.

IRRI - International Rice Research Institute
The embryo or germ is extremely small and is located on the ventral side of the caryopsis. It contains the embryonic leaves (plumule) and embryonic root (radicle), which are joined by a very short stem (mesocotyl). The plumule is enclosed by a cylinderlike protective covering, the coleoptile, and the radicle is ensheathed by a mass of soft tissue, the coleorhiza. The outer side of the embryo is enclosed by the aleurone layer.

How do you cook your White Rice Pastas?

Ener-G Foods
When cooking rice pastas a few drops of oil in the water keeps it from sticking together. Pastas made without wheat or gluten require less cooking time or they will become mushy. Some people have found by putting the sauce over the uncooked pasta and then heating it up in the microwave the pasta becomes tender and cooks in its own sauce. Lasagna can be made with the raw/uncooked pasta and then baked as usual in the casserole.
