Perhaps the most unique rice we have ever encountered, Lotus Organic Red Rice has been grown for thousands of years. With more potassium than gatorade, and a significant amount of magnesium, this quick-cooking whole grain is a nutritional and culinary superstar. It will entice you with its complex, nutty, earthy flavor, soft texture and beautiful russet color. Lotus Organic Red Rice is frequently paired with mushrooms and hot chilies. Restaurants, industrial kitchens that cook in bulk, chefs, and other foodservice professionals in the US like to pair it with big flavor foods like duck, venison, lamb, pork, wild mushrooms, eggplant, or roasted peppers. It is perfect for those dishes in which rice holds the place of honor as a pilaf, risotto, stir fry, salad, pudding or steamed plain to accompany vegetable, seafood and meat dishes. We have worked closely with our suppliers to give farmers access to a global marketplace. Ensuring this new source of livelihood means that this beautiful and wholesome rice is now safe from extinction and will be feeding families there, and here, for a long time to come.
