BROWN RICE, SHORT GRAIN - Kosher/Gluten Free

BROWNSH-10

Description:

Short Grain Brown Rice is also known as Pearled Rice or Glutinous Rice (does not contain gluten). This Short Grain Brown Rice still has the high fiber Bran coating giving it a nutty flavor. This small almost round grain of Rice contains a higher starch content than long or medium grain rices. When cooked the Short Grain Brown Rice tends to be moist and soft which causes the grains to stick together. Because of these properties, Short Grain Brown Rice is especially suitable in recipes where a creamy texture is desiredand can be used like Italian Arborio rice in risotto recipes. Short Grain Brown Rice is excellent for Asian and Oriental recipes because of its stickier consistency. This allows it to stick together when cooked and is easier to eat with chopsticks.

Ingredient Statement:

Brown Rice.
