Rinse the selected rice 2–3 times under clean water. Soak for 15–30 minutes if desired for softer grains. Use a 1:2 rice-to-water ratio for most varieties, adjusting for softer or firmer texture. Cook in a covered pot, pressure cooker or rice cooker. Fluff gently before serving.
All types of rice include long-grain, medium-grain and short-grain varieties, such as basmati, jasmine, sona masoori, parboiled, red, brown and black rice. In India, you also get specialty options for idli, dosa and pongal. Each type of rice has unique texture, aroma and best-suited dishes.
To cook all types of rice, first rinse thoroughly to remove excess starch. Most varieties use about 1 cup rice to 2 cups water. Soak basmati or long-grain rice for 20 minutes for fluffier results. Cook in a covered pan, pressure cooker or rice cooker, then rest and fluff before serving.
Different types of rice are called by grain size, processing and region. Common names include basmati, jasmine, sona masoori, ponni, parboiled, raw rice, brown rice, red rice and black rice. In India, you also hear terms like idli rice, matta rice and seeraga samba for specific dishes.
Naturally, all types of rice are gluten free, including white, brown, red and black rice, making them suitable for people with gluten intolerance or celiac disease. However, gluten can be introduced through processing or mixed products, so always check labels and avoid rice blends with added wheat ingredients.
Most types of rice are healthy when eaten in moderation as part of a balanced diet. Brown, red and black rice offer more fibre and micronutrients, while white rice provides quick energy and easy digestion. Pair rice with vegetables, pulses and lean protein to improve nutrition and satiety.
