Cooked rice is a staple food enjoyed across the globe, originating from Asia but widely adopted in cuisines such as Indian, Chinese, Japanese, and Latin American. It is made by boiling or steaming rice grains, which come in varieties like white, brown, jasmine, and basmati. Nutritionally, rice is a rich source of carbohydrates, providing energy and acting as a base for numerous meals. Brown rice retains its bran layer, offering fiber, vitamins, and minerals, while white rice is milled and contains fewer nutrients. Rice is naturally gluten-free, making it an excellent choice for individuals with gluten sensitivities. While it’s low in fat and sodium, white rice has a higher glycemic index and may not be ideal for managing blood sugar. Cooked rice can be paired with protein-rich foods, vegetables, and legumes to create a balanced dish that complements its naturally versatile and mild flavor.
