Brown rice is regular rice with the covering of the grain still intact. It takes longer to cook than white rice, but it has a better flavor and is healthier due to the extra fiber it contains. The box will tell you how much water to use and how long to cook it but you just boil it in salted water like regular white rice.
Why add salt at all? There is no reason to add salt to rice.

Usually when you cook rice it's cooked until the grains have absorbed all the water you have added. If you've added too much water then it would be ok to drain the extra water as long as the rice is tender. If you're cooking long grain white rice, use the ratio of 1 cup of rice to 2 cups water, then cook 'til all water is gone.
