What it is

Whole Grain Wehani Rice is a type of aromatic, reddish-brown rice developed by the Wild Rice Company. It is a whole grain, meaning it contains the bran, germ, and endosperm, giving it a nutty flavor and chewy texture. It is grown in the United States.

Why it's used

Whole Grain Wehani Rice is typically used as a flavorful alternative to brown or white rice in side dishes, pilafs, and rice blends. Its distinct color and aroma make it an appealing choice for consumers seeking visually interesting and flavorful grain options.

Health notes

Whole Grain Wehani Rice is a whole grain and a source of fiber and nutrients. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) generally recognizes whole grains as part of a healthy diet. International bodies like the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) have evaluated many food ingredients, but specific evaluations for Wehani Rice are not widely published. As a whole food, it is not typically subject to the same additive regulations as processed ingredients.

Allergen info
