About Rice
Brown rice is a wholegrain staple eaten across much of the world, valued for its nuttier bite and chewier texture compared with white rice, though it needs a longer simmer to soften. This entry is for the raw, uncooked grain, so the figures below apply to rice as it comes from the packet, before water and cooking roughly triple its weight.
Dry, 100 g of long-grain brown rice provides 366 kcal, 7.25 g protein and 76.7 g carbohydrate, with 3.02 g fibre and 3.31 g fat — figures typical of an unmilled wholegrain that still has its bran layer intact. Magnesium is notably high at 115 mg per 100 g, and iron sits at 1.24 mg, with sodium at zero since nothing has been added. Once cooked, these values will be considerably lower per 100 g simply because of the water absorbed. Rinsing the raw grain before cooking helps remove surface starch and gives a less sticky, more separate result once steamed or boiled.
