What it is

White rice is the grain of the rice plant after the husk, bran, and germ have been removed. This milling process makes it easier to digest and gives it a longer shelf life than brown rice. It is a staple food for over half the world's population.

Why it's used

White rice is used as a base or filler in many dishes, from side dishes to main courses. It is often found in frozen meals, grain-based products, and ready-made combination meals. Its neutral flavor and fluffy texture make it a versatile ingredient.

Health notes

White rice is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for consumption. It is a source of carbohydrates, providing energy. The World Health Organization (WHO) has evaluated rice, and it is a common food item in many diets. Some studies suggest a link between high consumption of refined grains like white rice and increased risk of type 2 diabetes, while others show mixed results.

Allergen info

White rice is not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
