What is Parboiled Rice? The parboiling process consists of steeping rough rice in hot water, steaming under carefully controlled conditions and then drying. Dried rough rice is then milled following the conventional method. The nutritional profile of parboiled rice is similar to whole grain brown rice.
Partially boiling rice in its husk gelatinizes the starch in the grain, resulting in an ingredient that is more resistant to overcooking or over processing. Discover Riviana’s full line of parboiled rice, including organic, white and brown rice.
