Riz Noir

Organic Ancient Black Rice is a dark, short grain that was once consumed only by emperors and referred to as forbidden rice”. We can understand why emperors regarded black rice in such high esteem! Black rice is a super food and the most nutritional of any rice on the market. In fact, black rice contains as many antioxidants as blueberries! That alone has us incredibly excited to bring you this naturally grown, health boosting Organic Ancient Black Rice!

Black rice may sound exotic, but the grains can be prepared in the traditional boiling method. The color of black rice transforms from a rich, satin black to a deeply set purple. Its flavor profile is comparable to that of whole grain rice: a little firmer, nutty, and complex in taste over white rice. Our Organic Ancient Black Rice adds depth of flavor and a pop of color to rice salads, side dishes, and even desserts!
