Red rice?

It just takes a little longer to cook, but its a healthier option to white rice. I have switched over to red rice now.

Looks like you got a lot of useful information and that is is healthy and natural. Enjoy!

I have never heard of this or seen it. Wonder where you would find something like this, and is it colored like this because maybe it is more tomato based in taste? I know myself I have ate Brown, white and Yellow rice. Never cared for the brown at all, but the yellow is not bad.

Wow, really, something you don't kn ow about cooking? Of course I wouldn't know, but I had to stop by and see what the others said,in case I happen to get some. Seems like your second response had the answer for you. Let us know what you think.

I've never heard of red rice. I have no idea what the difference is or how you prepare it. What did you end up making with it?

Hi, I never heard about red rice. I think some red color would be added while cooking.

I have never came across the red ones but would like to try it though. I like the home grown maroon colored ones and the sticky ones from my native home town. I think there is no different way to cook rice no matter what color they are.

I have never heard of this either. I would love to know of its health benefits and if it's a healthier alternative.

this is news to me. never heard of it and will do a search. my daughter actually bought some rice here id never heard of before but she made a dish with it and i cant remember what. i think it was chicken. anyway what she bought was called "dirty rice" i told her not sure i want to eat it but it does say that right on the box!

May be red rice contain higher level of certain nutrient and mineral than white rice, changes the color of the rice, i'm pretty sure the cooking method is the same as white rice or brown rice. After thoroughly washes the rice, add in several cup of water and place them in the rice cooker, and then let the rice cooker do the rest for you. The taste may be a bit different than you can find in white rice or brown rice.

I think there are several varieties of rice, brown , black, the polished white but this is the first time I heard about red rice. I guess it is high in fiber like any other colored variety, since it's not common. For me, I think there is no special technique on how to cook red rice, it's the same as the other variety but I think they are more nutritious than the ordinary rice.

Cooked rice is our daily food,but I see something of red rice now.I have eaten it before and it tasted good.It isn't the brown rice.You wash it before putting it into electric rice cooker,then add water into cooker ,let the water be just above the back of your hand when your hand lies flat on the rice. Now, it is time you cook it.It is done when the cooker sends out lovely rice smell.

yeah, you can cook it like you are cooking the usual rice you have there. it is just the same. the benefit you can get from this rice is that it is lower the cholesterol. so enjoy

Red and brown rice is different. They are the different type of rice but like brown rice, red rice also maintains the bran, resulting in a chewy, nutritious rice. Red rice is mainly grown in Europe, India and Southeast Asia. Brown and red rice come from different types of seeds, but are equivalent in nutrition and cooking time. The main difference is the taste, which is a matter of personal preference.

I've never even seen red rice before. Rice is rice, I guess. I can't see that it would be any different. I like brown rice.

There is no different in cooking any other rice but as I heard red rice is more beneficial to our health compared to other rice.

This is the first I have heard of red rice!
