Short Grain White Rice

Short Grain White Rice

EverydayDryEnriched

Short grain white rice is a polished cereal grain characterized by its plump, almost round kernels that become soft and cling together when cooked. The enriched version has been fortified with iron, thiamine, and folic acid to replace nutrients lost during milling. While lower in fiber than brown rice varieties, this quick-cooking staple provides concentrated carbohydrates ideal for energy-dense dishes like sushi, risotto, and rice pudding.
