What it is

Long grain rice is a type of rice that is longer than it is wide, typically four to five times as long. Parboiled rice is rice that has been partially boiled in the husk. Enriched rice has added nutrients, such as iron and B vitamins, that were lost during processing.

Why it's used

Enriched parboiled long grain rice is often used in packaged rice mixes and side dishes. Manufacturers use it because it holds its shape well during cooking and has a longer shelf life than regular white rice. It provides a base for absorbing flavors in dishes like flavored rice pilafs and Spanish rice.

Health notes

Rice is a staple food in many diets. Enriched rice is a source of carbohydrates and added vitamins and minerals. The FDA considers enriched rice to be safe for consumption. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated rice and its components. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming enriched rice at typical dietary levels.

Allergen info

Rice is not one of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
