Once so rare that only China's emperors were allowed to eat it. But now you can find it in many supermarkets. It has nutty floral flavors with a toothsome texture and contains compounds found in blueberries that may reduce risk of hear disease and cancer. you don't rinse this as the outer bran layer has antioxidants which may help lower cholesterol.

The rice was a bit too chewy for my taste, but the flavor was good. I'll try cooking it for a shorter amount of time next time.
