What it is
Parboiled brown rice is whole grain rice that has been partially boiled in the husk. This process makes the rice easier to process, improves its texture, and helps retain more nutrients. The rice is then dried, milled, and often packaged for sale.
Why it's used
Parboiled brown rice is used as a whole grain carbohydrate source in packaged foods. It is often found in products like instant rice mixes, rice bowls, and side dishes. Its pre-cooked nature allows for faster preparation times.
Health notes
Parboiled brown rice is considered a whole grain and a source of fiber and nutrients. The FDA considers rice to be generally recognized as safe (GRAS). International bodies like JECFA have evaluated rice and its components. Like other grains, it contains carbohydrates and can be part of a balanced diet.
Allergen info
