What it is

Red rice gets its colour from the reddish layer on the grain, and it is eaten across Kerala and parts of Tamil Nadu and Karnataka. This is a raw (pachai) red rice, not parboiled.

It cooks up chewy and slightly nutty, with a firmer bite than white rice, and it holds up well under a thick kuzhambu or a ladle of sambar. It needs a longer soak and more water. Choosing between red rice? This red raw rice for everyday meals; the unpolished red raw rice for a darker, chewier grain; kavuni if you want black rice for sweets.

Tip: Cook extra and keep the water. Red rice kanji with salt and a spoon of pickle is its own dinner.

Goes well with: Grand Sweets Kara Kozhambu, Udhaiyam Toor Dal, 777 Lime Pickle
