Packed full of health benefits and incredibly versatile
Delicious, nutrient-dense and easy to cook, Riceberry is the amazing creation of the Rice Science Centre of Thailand’s Kasetsart University, officially named and released for mass cultivation and consumption since 2005.
It is a long-grain hybrid of the local non-glutinous purple rice Jao Hom Nin, and the Hom Mali Rice Khoa Dawk Mali 105 (both variants of Jasmine Rice). Cultivated in the cool North and North-East regions of Thailand, riceberry is grown with wholly organic methods throughout the year and takes about 4 months till harvest. It is most suitably planted during the rainy season in August till December.
Riceberry is quite literally the latest pride of Thailand, standing out with its unique raw reddish black colour that turns dark purple when cooked, as well as a long list of great health benefits in preventing chronic illnesses like diabetes, heart disease, obesity and cancer. It’s been highly promoted around the world and is known as the new ‘super grain’ of Thailand.
Riceberry is a whole grain rice with only the husk removed in the milling process, leaving the highly concentrated nutrients in the bran. Natural anthocyanin gives riceberry its rich colour – a soluble antioxidant compound that inhibits cell damage and lowers cholesterol in your body. Riceberry is packed with other antioxidants as well, including beta carotene, gamma oryzanol and vitamin E. All these help to eliminate free radicals and the growth of cancer cells.
While other types of carb food have higher glycemic Indexes (GI) which gives your bloodstream more sugar, riceberry has a medium to low GI, and thus lowers your overall sugar intake.
The abundance of fibre also helps your digestion, lower blood cholesterol and glucose levels.
All that means eating riceberry can help keep you fit, nourish your skin, prevent wrinkles and slow your aging!
Don't just take our word for it., search on the internet, research articles and you will find that this super grain is truly a wonder. Years in the making, this rice is truly a work of art that has a list of proven health benefits that goes on and on. It’s the perfect vehicle to eat with a stir-fry, to absorb saucy curries, to accompany stews or broths chocked full of vegetables or meat, or even to use as a quick and simple side to a pan-seared steak and a tossed salad. If you like the taste of white jasmine rice but want to pump up your nutrient intake and get some health benefits along the way then this rice was developed just for you. When cooked it remains light, fluffy and fragrant and cleverly uses the very best characteristics of it's crossbred parent rice grains.
Riceberry has a rich fragrance with a tender, chewy texture and a light sweetness that goes perfect with any stir-fried, grilled, soup and braised cuisines. Its mild nutty flavour is also great for rice-based salads, while its glutinous quality makes it awesome for desserts.
Best part? Unlike other wholegrain rice that takes forever to cook, riceberry cooks just like brown jasmine rice. Rinse thoroughly to remove dust and excess starch, put about 1.5 parts water to your amount of riceberry, and steam till the water is absorbed or do what the professionals do and use a good rice cooker!
