Do you put the short grain brown rice in a mesh bag or keep it loose in the crockpot?

Loose like barley.

A sealed bag of pearl (not regular) barley is not chametz!

For those of you who use short grained brown rice:
Do your just add the rice or does it need to be washed before?

I second the vote for kasha. Just use more water than you would with barley and comes to a great consistency. Do this year round for gluten free.


never heard of buckwheat in cholent or as a dish in general.

is it healthier than rice? barley?

whats the taste like in the cholent in comparison to barley?

I like the idea as its not a grain and as for rice has alot less phytic acid in it.

no bashing please.

I have been using a bit of flour to thicken my chulent past few weeks. Make a Roux with a bit of oil before adding all the ingredients. I also put homemade kishka unwrapped that helps it thicken as well and gives it a delicious flavor.

rice has less phytic acid than beans and probably also barley. Also you can soak rice in warm water and an acid overnight to remove some of the phytate.

I dont think so.

I think rice has more or its very hard to remove cos its very low phytase?
