About Parboiled white rice
Parboiled white rice is a versatile grain that undergoes a unique processing method, where it is soaked, steamed, and dried before milling. Originating from regions like India and Southeast Asia, it is widely used in global cuisines, including pilafs, curries, and side dishes. This process enhances its nutritional profile by transferring some nutrients from the bran into the grain, resulting in a higher vitamin and mineral content compared to regular white rice. Parboiled rice is a good source of carbohydrates, providing sustained energy, and contains small amounts of protein. It is low in fat and sodium, making it suitable for heart-healthy diets. However, it is not a significant source of fiber, unlike brown rice, due to the removal of the bran. It cooks faster and has a firmer texture, making it ideal for recipes requiring grains that hold their shape.
