short grain brown rice, Organic, 1kg

1kg of Organic Short Grain Brown Rice packed in our plant based, celluose, compostable bags.

Short-grain brown rice is whole-grain rice with only the inedible outer husk removed. The bran and germ remain intact, giving it more fibre, nutrients, and a chewier texture than white rice. The short-grain variety is naturally starchier than long-grain rice.

Flavour & texture

Nutty, earthy, and mildly sweet. When cooked, short-grain brown rice becomes tender but slightly chewy, with a gentle stickiness that helps it hold together.

Common culinary uses

• Rice bowls – holds sauces and toppings well
• Sushi-style dishes – a whole-grain alternative to white sushi rice
• Risotto-style dishes – creamier than long-grain brown rice
• Stuffed vegetables – peppers, squash, cabbage leaves
• Soups & stews – adds body and substance
• Grain salads – hearty and filling

Short-grain brown rice is chosen when you want structure and cohesion rather than fluffy separation.
