A white rice prepared from brown rice that has been soaked, steamed under pressure to force water-soluble nutrients into the starchy endosperm, and then dried and milled.

Uncle Ben's brand has trademarked "converted" with regard to rice. For this recipe, you should be able to use any long-grain (not short-grain like sushi) rice that takes about 20 minutes to cook.
