Brown Rice With Yams

2 cups brown rice
2 medium yams, peeled and cubed
2 tsp finely grated fresh ginger
2 Tbs miso
2 Tbs oil
lots of water

1) Soak the rice overnight (or all day) in 4 cups of water, then drain.
2) Place the rice, yams, and 6 cups fresh water in a heavy covered saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low and cook for about 30 minutes or until rice and yams are tender.
3) Dissolve the miso in a little warm water, then add miso, ginger, and oil to the rice pot and simmer for 15 minutes for 15 minutes more.

Review: Kind of bland, but exactly what I needed to get over my case of food poisoning. Rice, ginger and sweet potatoes are great for soothing stomachs and I just love miso. It has a great Asian flavor, without being too overpowering. I'll definitely add this to the permanent cookbook.
