Krishna Vrihi (Black Rice) - Natural - 1 KG

Staples

Krishna Vrihi (Black Rice)  has the highest in antioxidant activity and contains more protein than brown rice. As such, eating it may offer several health benefits, including boosting eye and heart health, protecting against certain forms of cancer, and aiding weight loss. Black rice has a deep black color and usually turns deep purple when cooked. Its dark purple color is primarily due to its anthocyanin content, which is higher by weight than that of other colored grains.

How to Cook:
Combine the  rice , water, and olive oil in a medium pot and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 30 minutes.
Remove from the heat and let it sit, covered, for 10 more minutes. Fluff with a fork.
