Instant Brown Rice

Instant Brown Rice

EverydayDried

Instant brown rice is a parboiled and dehydrated whole grain that retains the bran and germ layers, offering faster preparation than traditional brown rice. This precooked version maintains most of the original grain’s fiber and nutrients, though with a slightly softer texture after rehydration. Designed for convenience, it cooks in 5-10 minutes while still providing the nutty flavor and health benefits associated with minimally processed whole grains.
