About Boiled parboiled rice

Boiled Parboiled Rice, also known as converted rice, is a nutrient-rich variety that undergoes partial boiling before milling, which helps retain more vitamins and minerals from the husk compared to regular white rice. This process gives it a firmer texture and slightly nutty flavor, making it popular in South Asian, African, and Caribbean cuisines. Parboiled rice is a good source of carbohydrates, providing steady energy, and contains small amounts of protein and fiber. It also has a lower glycemic index than white rice, which makes it a healthier choice for managing blood sugar levels. However, like most rice varieties, it is relatively low in essential nutrients compared to whole grains and is typically paired with nutrient-dense sides. Its digestibility and versatility make boiled parboiled rice a staple for balanced meals in many cultures worldwide.
