[Artemisia] Camping Rice

[Richard Samul]

12 cups is a lot, so you'll want to cook it in batches, unless you  
have a monster pot to cook it in. Otherwise, it's just the same as  
cooking in a pot on a regular stove - two cups of water to one cup of  
rice (more or less). Keep the heat low enough to just boil the water,  
otherwise you'll burn the bottom, and allow it to cook for about 20  
minutes or so.

Given the amount, I'd cook it ahead of time,allow it to cool to room  
temperature, then freeze it in ziploc bags - use the boil-in-bag  
method that someone else mentioned.
