Organic Long-Grain Parboiled Rice is the type of rice you should use if you want the grains to be separate and firm when cooked. Its the right choice of grain for a pilaf or similar dishes.\n Organic Parboiled Rice is also processed, but less so than regular white rice. Parboiling is a process that enriches rice kernels with nutrients stored in its inedible hull. Thats why Organic Long-Grain Parboiled Rice is almost as nutritious as brown rice. It has less fiber because the hull gets removed during the process. However, it retains large amounts of B vitamins, magnesium, zinc, and iron.\n Parboiling is processing rice grains before the inedible stiff hull gets removed by the machine. The grain is soaked, steamed, and dried before being hulled. During this process, the kernels soak up some nutrients as well as flavor. They also change color, so Organic Long-Grain Parboiled Rice will be yellowish instead of white.
