Details
Give yourself the ability to create a variety of Asian dishes when you stock your restaurant with this Assi black rice! Also know as emperor's rice, black rice is a rare type of rice that was reserved for the aristocracy in Ancient China. Although it is more widely available today, its low yield and high vitamin content makes it remain a unique, specialty rice. This black rice is rich in antioxidants, fiber, iron, protein, and vitamin E, while having a low glycemic index, making it an ideal source of healthy carbohydrates. This medium grain rice cooks up to have a moist and tender texture, great for complementing dishes with chicken, pork, fish, or even vegetarian entrees.
Frequently used in Asian and Italian cuisine, black rice has a slightly nutty, yet sweet flavor with fruity and floral notes. This rice lends a beautiful black and purple coloring to your dishes, making for a uniquely stunning presentation. When you use this rice to make authentic Asian dishes in your restaurant, like rice cakes, stir-frys, or rice pudding, you'll be sure to impress your guests!
