Basic Black Rice

I just recently discovered black rice and I absolutely love its chewy yet “al dente” texture and its distinct rich nutty flavor! This Forbidden rice provides the richest nutritional value of any bran rice, providing a higher level of protein, vitamins, minerals and fiber. It is very rich in antioxidants.
