Thai red rice has a soft texture, nutty taste and chewy consistency. The delicious rice has long grains with a red tint.

Thai red rice is available in many varieties. Thai red cargo is the most popular amongst Thai people. It has long grains and looks almost like Jasmine rice. Coral Jasmine red rice is another popular type which is semi-polished and has an earthy shade. All varieties of red rice are high in fiber due to its unpolished external shell. Thai long grain red rice Red rice derives its name from its characteristic red colour. It is rich in antioxidants and flavonoids, such as quercetin, myricetin, and anthocyanins apigenin, which imparts the reddish hue to the rice. Pleasant nutty aroma with a slightly firm, chewy exterior and tender interior. Also known as Thai cargo rice. Thai people are very much addicted to this type of rice; it goes well with breakfast, lunch and dinner. The added attraction is that it takes very little time to cook. The flavonoids and minerals present in red rice offer a gamut of health benefits.

Due to its rich mineral content, red rice also grants the following benefits:

1) Strengthened bone.

2) Better metabolism.

3) Improved immune response.

4) Better digestive functions.

Like any other brown rice, the bran covering the rice requires a longer cooking time and more water than white rice. Soaking for 2 hours beforehand reduces cooking time. Discard soaking water. Grains often split open while cooking.

Cooking Methods:

1) Rinse the rice in several changes and drained off excess water.

2) For each cup of whole grain red rice, use 2 cups water/broth if soaking for at least 2 hours.

You can then cook the rice with green vegetables and soft meat. For a tantalizing experience, try it with robust curries. The cooked grains are chewy and soft, and too tempting not to want more and more .

    I wish more people would discover this rice. It is nutty and full flavored. So, so much better than brown rice and about as good as wild rice.
