  7. Our Purpose To develop an acceptable tuna patty using short grain brown rice

  8. Brown rice is in the unmilled form with the bran and germ layers still present. The extra layers increase cooking time and give the rice a chewy texture and nutty flavor. Short grain rice is more sticky and clingy than the longer grain varieties. Short Grain Brown Rice Image obtained 10/26/08 from http://www.1888leapfrog.com/ricebran/
