About Rice, white, short-grain, cooked

Rice is the edible seed of the grass Oryza sativa and the staple food for more than half the world's population, especially across Asia, Africa, and Latin America. It cooks up in countless forms, from fluffy long-grain and sticky short-grain to fragrant jasmine and basmati, creamy Italian Arborio, and nutty whole-grain brown, red, and black rice that keep their bran and germ. White rice is a quick-cooking, easily digested source of carbohydrates, while brown and other whole-grain rices add more fiber, magnesium, and B vitamins.

Naturally gluten-free, it is the foundation of dishes around the globe, including fried rice, sushi, risotto, paella, biryani, jambalaya, and rice and beans, and it works just as well as a simple everyday side. Rinsing rice before cooking removes surface starch for fluffier grains, and the right water-to-rice ratio makes all the difference. Store uncooked rice in an airtight container in a cool, dry pantry, keeping fiber-rich brown rice refrigerated to protect its natural oils.
