<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> I like brown rice in chicken soup, but I hate the way it gets mushy & clouds up the broth if not eaten right away. I finally figured out a way to have my chicken & rice soup the way I like it both today & tomorrow. I cook the broth, chicken & veggies in one pot. I prepare the rice in a separate pot. When it's time to serve it, I put rice in the bowl, then pour the broth & veggies over the top. It always tastes freshly made when I do it this way.
