Rice Second only to Corn in worldwide production Most important staple grain to humans – Provides 20-50% of needed calories to people worldwide (Most corn is grown for animal fed) Labor intensive to cultivate Needs abundant water sources Session One CHRM 1110 Vegetable, Starch & Protein Basics
8
Rice, Con’t. Two Main Cultivars, “Indica” & “Japonica” “Indica" produces long-grain rice and is grown in tropical areas such as South-East Asia Short-grained "japonica" is cultivated in temperate areas including Japan and northern China Wild rice is an entirely different and is harvested from wild plants in North America. Session One CHRM 1110 Vegetable, Starch & Protein Basics
9
Rice, Con’t. All rice starts out as brown rice. White rice, the fibrous bran layer and underlying germ are milled off—along with nutrients and natural oils – Less nutritious – more shelf-stable than the brown stuff. Long grain, medium grain, and short grains Session One CHRM 1110 Vegetable, Starch & Protein Basics
10
Rice, Texture Fluffy, sticky, or in between. Texture of cooked rice depends on the ratio of two starch molecules: amylose and amylopectin. High-amylose rices (longer Grains) cook up firm, fluffy, and distinct; high-amylopectin (Short Grains) rices come out tender and sticky and require more water (and cooking time) than the latter. Session One CHRM 1110 Vegetable, Starch & Protein Basics
11
Long-Grain vs. Short-Grain Rice Long-Grain RiceShort/Medium-Grain Rice For Most Savory Dishes Dry, Separate Grains In India, the aromatic basmati rice is very popular; the word basmati means fragrant. creamy when cooked used in milk puddings and risottos Japan and Korea, glutinous “sticky” rice is preferred because it is sticky when cooked and is easier to eat with chop-sticks. Session One CHRM 1110 Vegetable, Starch & Protein Basics

White Rice Milled rice with Husk, Bran, & Germ Removed. Prevents spoilage & Extends Storage life After milling, the rice is polished, resulting in a seed with a bright, white, shiny appearance Session One CHRM 1110 Vegetable, Starch & Protein Basics
13
White Rice, Con’t. Polishing removes important nutrients. A diet based on un-enriched white rice leaves people vulnerable to the neurological disease beriberi, due to a deficiency of thiamine (vitamin B1). Enrichment of white rice with B1, B3, and iron is required by law in the United States. Session One CHRM 1110 Vegetable, Starch & Protein Basics
