Black Rice Salad is a nutrient-packed dish celebrated for its vibrant flavor and wholesome ingredients. Often rooted in Asian or fusion cuisine, this colorful salad features black rice – a whole grain rich in antioxidants like anthocyanins – as its foundation. Additions typically include fresh vegetables such as bell peppers, carrots, and scallions, complemented by herbs like cilantro or parsley. Common dressings include light vinaigrettes with citrus or sesame oil, adding tanginess and heart-healthy fats. Protein options like edamame, tofu, or grilled chicken make it a versatile main or side dish. Black rice is high in fiber, promoting digestion, and its complex carbohydrates provide sustained energy. Minimal use of added sugars and oils keeps this dish on the lighter side. However, portions should be mindful of overall calorie content if nuts or seeds are included. This salad shines as a balanced, gluten-free choice for nourishing meals.
