Damon,
Is the question, Does anyone here regularly cook paddy rice that they husk or thresh, themselves?
When I was living at the Kushi Institute at Becket back in 1986-7, I remember theshing a few bags of paddy rice and we were eating that rice.
My perception is that most mb practitioners just buy organic short grain brown rice, cook it up and eat it.
I just called up Matthew 800-645-8744 at the Kushi Institute store and warehouse and found out that besides the
paddy rice that they will thresh and immediately ship to you, they also are selling paddy (unhusked) rice, 40 pound bags for $50.00, that they know of a used threshing machine selling for 1500 dollars ($1,500.00) and you can buy new threshing machines for 2500 dollars ($2,500.00) each.
Does that help at all?
Thank you, very much.
