We know brown rice tends to go rancid really fast. Luckily, it is pretty easy to stop that from happening - make sure your brown rice is stored either in its original packaging or in an airtight container. The more it interacts with oxygen, the quicker it will get rancid. Many people say that it should be stored in the freezer, but I have always kept mine in the fridge and it has lasted for eight months or so. Essentially, you need someplace that is dark and cool. My tip though, is to buy smaller quantities and consume the rice quickly, so massive jars of rice do not clog up your fridge or freezer.About the author:
