Black Rice

Often called the "forbidden rice" due to its historical exclusivity, Black Rice is a nutrient-dense grain known for its deep purple-black color, rich antioxidants, and slightly nutty flavor. Naturally packed with fiber, protein, and essential minerals, it is a wholesome choice for those looking to add both nutrition and flavor to their meals.
Unlike regular rice varieties, Black Rice is loaded with anthocyanins, the same powerful antioxidants found in blueberries, giving it its distinct color and numerous health benefits. With its chewy texture and mildly sweet taste, it pairs well with both savory and sweet dishes.
