Texmati® Brown Rice Bread

Pour 1 cup scalded milk over shortening, sugar and salt. Add cooked rice. Dissolve yeast in cooled 1/4 cup scalded milk; stir into rice mixture. Work in flour to make a firm dough. Turn out on floured board and knead until smooth and elastic. Place in greased bowl, cover and let rise until doubled. Punch down and knead 2-3 minutes. Shape into loaves and place in well greased loaf pans. Cover, let rise again until doubled in bulk, then brush tops with melted butter and bake at 375 degrees for 40-45 minutes. Makes 2 loaves.
