About Vadi matta rice

Vadi Matta Rice, a traditional variety from Kerala, India, is renowned for its distinct earthy flavor and reddish hue. This nutrient-rich rice is partially milled, retaining its outer bran layer, which boosts its fiber content and makes it a wholesome addition to meals. It is packed with essential nutrients like magnesium, calcium, and phosphorus that support bone health and provide sustained energy. Vadi Matta Rice is commonly used in South Indian cuisine, complementing dishes like curries, lentils, and stir-fries. While it is a healthier alternative to fully polished white rice, its slightly higher carbohydrate content requires moderation for individuals managing weight or blood sugar levels. Known for its firm texture, this rice is ideal for those seeking both flavor and nutrition from staple grains. Perfect for a balanced diet, it is a heart-healthy option when consumed as part of a varied and moderate eating plan.
