Ingredients: Organic BlackRice

Cultivated for centuries in Southeast Asia, black rice has long been revered for its unique properties and symbolic meaning. Its deep colour was associated with nobility and longevity, making it a prized ingredient in royal and celebratory dishes. From ancient wisdom to modern kitchens, black rice continues to weave a story of health, tradition, and culinary adventure.

Rinse 1 cup black rice, then pressure cook with 1.5 cups liquid (water or broth), and salt (optional) for 22-25 minutes. Let pressure release naturally for 10 minutes.

This aromatic and slightly chewy rice pairs beautifully with curries, stir-fries, and even salads. In Asia, it's traditionally enjoyed with coconut milk and spices, symbolising prosperity and good health. Experiment and create your own flavorful combinations!
