Rice types
Worldwide, there are more than 40,000 different varieties of rice. Often times, rice is categorized by its size as being either short grain, medium grain or long grain. Another way of classification is according to the degree of milling that it undergoes. This is what makes brown rice different from white rice.
Thus, the most important differences between varieties of rice are their cooking characteristics, shapes, colors and, in some cases, a subtle flavor difference.
Long Grain Rice
Long Grain White Rice is one of the most well-known types of rice, because of its subtle flavor, which perfectly complements both rich and delicate sauces. Milled to remove the husk and bran layer, the grain is slim and 4-5 times as long as it is wide. This refined white rice has a neutral flavor and cooks up with the grains being separate, rather than sticky, for an attractive fluffy effect.
Cook it best using the absorption method, in a tightly covered pot, not more than 15 minutes, adding 2 cups of water to 1 cup of rice.
Extremely versatile, regular long grain white rice is used for countless international savory dishes. Some of its best uses include: pilaf, paella, stir fry dishes, salads, side dishes or it can be eaten as plain, boiled rice.
