One cup of White and brown rice is around 195 grams and contains approximately 253.0 calories, 5.3 grams of protein, 0.5 grams of fat, and 55.5 grams of carbohydrates.
White and brown rice are staple grains enjoyed around the world. White rice, milled and polished, has a soft texture and a delicate flavor, making it perfect for dishes like sushi and risotto. While it's versatile, it's lower in nutrients since the bran and germ are removed.
On the other hand, brown rice retains its outer bran layer, offering a nuttier taste and chewy texture. High in fiber, vitamins, and minerals, it supports digestive health and provides sustained energy. Ideal for hearty dishes, brown rice is a healthier choice for those seeking nutrition without sacrificing flavor.
