What it is

Enriched white rice is white rice that has had nutrients added back after processing. White rice is milled to remove the hull, bran, and germ, which strips away some natural vitamins and minerals. Enrichment adds back iron, thiamin, niacin, and folic acid.

Why it's used

Enriched white rice is a staple carbohydrate source used in a wide variety of dishes. It is often found in prepared meals, side dishes, and as a base for other ingredients. Manufacturers use it for its neutral flavor and texture, which complements many other foods.

Health notes

Enriched white rice is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. The added nutrients contribute to meeting daily dietary recommendations. The World Health Organization (WHO) and other international bodies have evaluated rice and its enrichment processes. Typical consumption as part of a balanced diet is not associated with adverse health effects.

Allergen info
