  • About

red rice Some varieties of rice have a bran layer that is red rather than the more usual (to us) pale brown. These rices are known as red rices. Because premium polished rice commands a higher price if it is uniformly white, red rice is viewed as an expensive intruder by many rice growers. Even when the rice is polished, some small bits of red bran may remain and thus lower the value of the batch of rice. But some growers have taken advantage of the recent consumer interest in different rices and have successfully marketed red rices. These include Wehani, Thai red rice, and the mahogany rice that is part of the Black Japonica blend. See Bhutanese red rice, Himalayan red rice, South Indian red rice, Thai red rice, Vietnamese red (cargo) rice, and Wehani.
