About Thai red rice

Thai red rice is a nutrient-rich whole grain with a slightly nutty flavor and chewy texture. Native to Thailand, this rice is a staple in Southeast Asian cuisine and is often included in traditional dishes for its distinct taste and vibrant reddish-brown hue, which comes from its unpolished bran layer. Packed with essential nutrients like fiber, B vitamins, iron, and antioxidants, Thai red rice supports heart health, aids digestion, and helps regulate blood sugar levels. Its rich anthocyanin content, the same antioxidant found in berries, gives it anti-inflammatory and immune-boosting properties. Unlike white rice, Thai red rice is minimally processed, preserving its nutritional integrity. While healthy, it is still a carbohydrate, so portion sizes should be managed to balance calorie intake. Ideal for salads, stir-fries, or as a base for curries, Thai red rice combines delicious flavor with impressive health benefits.
