About Cooked grains
Cooked grains are a versatile staple found across global cuisines, serving as a foundation for countless dishes. Common varieties include rice, quinoa, barley, bulgur, and farro, each offering unique flavors and textures. These grains are rich in carbohydrates, providing essential energy for the body, while whole grains retain fiber, vitamins, and minerals such as B vitamins, iron, and magnesium. Fiber content supports digestive health and helps regulate blood sugar levels. Cooked grains are prominent in cuisines like Middle Eastern, Asian, Mediterranean, and South American traditions. Refined grains, such as white rice, lose some nutrients during processing but still offer convenience and quick preparation. Pairing grains with proteins, vegetables, and healthy fats creates balanced meals. Overconsumption of refined grains or adding excessive salt or butter may reduce their health benefits, but overall, cooked grains remain a nourishing and adaptable dietary component.
