White rice is a versatile grain widely consumed across the globe, particularly in Asian, Latin American, and Middle Eastern cuisines. It is made by removing the husk, bran, and germ from raw rice, resulting in a refined and smooth texture. White rice is a good source of carbohydrates, providing quick energy, and is naturally low in fat and sodium. While it is gluten-free and easy to digest, white rice is less nutrient-dense than whole-grain options like brown rice, as the milling process removes fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Some varieties are enriched with nutrients such as iron and B vitamins to enhance their nutritional value. It pairs well with a variety of dishes, from stir-fries to curries, but should be consumed in moderation given its high glycemic index, which may impact blood sugar levels.
