Organic Black Rice

Black Rice aka Forbidden Rice is one of the most antioxidant rich rice varieties.

Black rice is similar to brown rice and is rich in fibre and protein. 

The natural black colour looks greatly mixed in with brown or white rice and served as an accompaniment to curry dishes. Black rice usually turns purple during cooking and has a similar taste and nutty texture to brown rice.

It can be used for both sweet and savoury dishes including porridge, desserts.
