Nature Pure Black Rice
Once known as "The Forbidden Rice".
Black rice was a valuable commodity in ancient China as it was grown in very limited quantities. This is why every grain of this crop was seized and consumed by the Chinese royalty and nobility. Its consumption by the common folk was banned. Thus, its alternative name ‘forbidden rice’ was coined. Today, thanks to its mild, nutty flavor, chewy texture, and many nutritional benefits, black rice can be found in numerous cuisines around the world.
