Rice is grown in over 100 countries and is a grain eaten by more people in the world than any other grain. In fact, three of the most populated regions of the world, China, India and Indonesia, are all rice based societies and it is their staple food.
More than 40,000 different varieties of rice exist. Of these varieties, more than 100 varieties are grown worldwide. Some of the more popular rice varieties eaten in Australia include:
Low GI White Rice (formerly known as Doongara rice or clever rice) a long grain rice that's uniquely developed and grown in Australia, with the benefit of having a lower glycemic index (GI) than regular rice.
Basmati rice a very long, slim grain, which is very popular in Indian cuisine and often served alongside curry based dishes. It also has a lower GI than regular rice.
Jasmine rice a very fragrant rice and originates from Thailand where it is used extensively in cooking, usually steamed.
Arborio rice a much shorter and plump grain, it is typically used in Italian dishes like risotto.
Brown rice a rice grain with the bran layer still intact. It can be cooked and eaten as it is and contains more nutrients in this form than white rice, which has had the outer bran layer and germ removed.
Coloured rice black rice and red rice are now available in Australia as well as wild rice.
