About Blue rice
Blue Rice is a visually striking dish made by infusing rice with natural plant-based colorants, often derived from butterfly pea flowers, which impart its vibrant hue. Common in Southeast Asian cuisine, particularly in Malaysia and Thailand, Blue Rice is both a culinary and cultural staple, valued for its unique appearance and subtle, earthy flavor. Nutritionally, the rice retains the nutrients typical of white or jasmine rice, such as carbohydrates for energy, while the butterfly pea flower adds antioxidant properties, including anthocyanins, known for their potential to combat inflammation and oxidative stress. Blue Rice is typically prepared with minimal added fats or sodium, making it a relatively healthy option when steamed. However, its healthiness depends on the accompanying ingredients and preparation methods, as coconut milk or sweetened sauces may increase caloric and sugar content. Perfect for vibrant, nutritious meals, Blue Rice combines aesthetic appeal with cultural depth.
