‘BORING’ is one thing that rice is absolutely not! From first being domesticated thousands of years ago, this ancient cereal grain has made the journey to being at the heart of meals, in homes all over the world because of all the wonderful ways it can be enjoyed.
Now, you’re probably used to rice being white; but with more than 40,000 different varieties of cultivated rice in existence, there’s bound to be some colour scattered across all those grains. These include red, black, amber and red strains as well as brown and even yellow and green ones!
From colour to cooking, rice is so versatile that whether it’s for breakfast, lunch, dinner or in-between mealtimes, rice can be used to create countless delicious dishes. It’s like the blank canvas of the cooking world!
