Rice according to Wikipedia is the seed of the monocot plants Oryza sativa (Asian rice) or Oryza glaberrima (African rice). It is very popular side dish. Furthermore it is very healthy food. There are a lot of different dishes with rice . Boiled rice, fried rice, sushi, risotto, pilaf, etc. But if you try to cook for example pilaf and sushi fhrom the same kind of rice, it will not work.

So in this post I want to tell about different types of rice

Actually there are a lot of them so I tell you about my three favourite

1.Chinese black rice, also known as forbidden rice. It's a whole-grain rice that cooks up firm, non-sticky, and tender. Its dramatic color (deep purple when cooked) makes it a particularly striking side dish or pilaf.



2.Arborio rice is the most widely available variety of Italian superfino rice, used to make risotto .





3 Basmati, the predominant rice in Indian and Pakistani cuisine, is marked by its extra-long grains and subtly nutty fragrance and flavor. It needs to soak for half an hour or more before cooking.
