Description

Rice is a product mainly associated with Chinese and Asian dishes. It is on the eastern continent that consumption reaches the highest values. White rice is much more popular, but black rice offers a unique taste experience.

Black Rice - a Special Rice Variety

Black rice is one of the lesser-known varieties of the popular Chinese plant. It has been consumed for hundreds of years in Asian countries and was once reserved only for the emperor, which is why it is also called 'forbidden rice'.

The seeds of this rice variety change color from black to dark purple when cooked. The anthocyanins in the beans are responsible for this specific color.

Black rice is relatively easy to cultivate and requires similar growing conditions as white rice. It has a unique flavor that is slightly sweet, which often makes it used in desserts such as rice pudding in Asian countries.

Black Rice - Nutritional Value

Regardless of the type or color of the seeds, rice is primarily a source of complex carbohydrates. However, black rice differs slightly from its white cousin. The starch it contains consists of more amylopectin, which provides a sticky consistency during cooking. The total amount of carbohydrates in black rice is estimated at about 75g per 100g product.

Black rice contains more protein than white rice and has 18 amino acids. The total protein content is estimated at about 9g per 100g seeds. It also contains iron, zinc, copper, carotene, and vitamin E.

Black rice can also be a source of dietary fiber.

Color and Taste of Black Rice

A characteristic feature of black rice is the dark-colored skin around the endosperm. The color makes it visually appealing and adds originality to dishes.

Black Rice - Dishes Full of Flavor and Character

Black rice also looks very original on the plate. It allows you to create interesting and simple dishes. It can be eaten both sweet and savory. It has a distinct, slightly nutty flavor.

Black rice is a commonly used ingredient in Asian dishes, especially in China, Korea, and Japan. Dishes with black rice offer versatility and are an intriguing addition to your daily diet.
