• PROPERTIES: Organic red rice is a variety of whole grain rice that offers many benefits for the body. Its red color is due to its fermentation process with Monascus purpurea yeast, which also contains important nutritional properties for the body. Unlike white rice, red rice retains its husk, which contains 95% of the minerals and fibers in the grain. It is especially beneficial for preventing and controlling diabetes, as it is rich in fiber and has a low glycemic index. It can contribute to proper intestinal transit because its high bran content makes it a prebiotic food in the body that helps prevent or reverse constipation. It is also particularly rich in antioxidants, especially anthocyanins. In addition to giving the typical red color, anthocyanins are known for their anti-aging, anti-inflammatory, and protective properties on microcirculation, as they act against capillary fragility and water retention. Finally, its potassium content makes it an excellent food for promoting bone health and preventing osteoporosis.
• PREPARATION: Organic red rice is a very versatile ingredient on our table. It can be cooked in boiling water for about 20 minutes or steamed if desired. Avoid stirring the rice during cooking. Like other whole grain rice, red rice can be used to make various salads, hot or cold side dishes, stir-fries, stews, etc. It is perfect for accompanying meat and fish stews or using it to make delicious croquettes.
