What Is Short Grain Brown Rice?
Though short grain and long grain brown rice share more similarities than differences, they contain a few key deviations in flavour and preparation. Do not confuse long grain brown rice with jasmine or basmati brown rice. Though these rices have long kernels, they are distinct from long grain brown rice.
Why Should I Get Short Grain Brown Rice ?
Rice is a good source of magnesium, phosphorus, selenium, thiamine, niacin and vitamin B6, and an excellent source of manganese, with 88 percent of your daily manganese in just one cup cooked.
There is a tendency for Short Grain rice to get sticky and stay soft, so it suffers from the addition of extra water and because of its smaller size, it requires a shorter cooking time than long grain rice. If you are used to cooking long grain rice, you may wish to reduce your water by about 10 percent. Typically, you want to use about 2 1/2 cups of water for every cup of rice.
Brown rice is highly nutritious food. It is a whole grain that is relatively low in calories (216 calories per cup), high in fibre, gluten-free and can be incorporated into a variety of dishes.
