Whole grain rice refers to rice that has not been milled or polished to remove the bran and germ layers. These layers contain a variety of nutrients, including fiber, B vitamins, and minerals such as iron and zinc.
Whole grain rice tends to be more nutritious than white rice, which has had the bran and germ removed during processing, and can be found as brown rice, black rice, and red rice.
Whole grain rice is a versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of dishes. If you’re new to cooking with whole grains, rice is an easy place to start, even with your pickiest eaters.
