Medium Grain Brown Rice

Medium Grain Brown Rice

EverydayDry

Medium grain brown rice is a whole grain rice variety characterized by its chewy texture and nutty flavor, retaining both the bran and germ layers removed in white rice processing. The medium-length grains become tender yet maintain a slight bite when cooked, requiring more water and longer preparation time than polished rice. This minimally processed rice provides significantly higher fiber, magnesium, and B vitamins compared to white rice varieties, making it a nutrient-dense staple for balanced diets.
