Rice and Grains Chinese Classics
Understanding the cornerstone of the Chinese diet

  Short-grain white rice is the most-commonly eaten rice in China. Glutinous, or sticky rice, is used for desserts, stuffings and regional dishes

  In Chinese-American cooking, long-grain rice is favored over short-grain, and brown rice has earned a following because of the health benefits.

  Black Forbidden Rice, which is a whole grain, was once a favorite of Chinese emperors. This deep purple, nutty-flavored rice is grown in China, and is now sold on the Internet and in specialty stores.
