Grain Glossary 

Rice 

is a staple food in many countries. Although long-grain rice is consumed more than any 

other rice around the world, it is inferior to brown rice in both taste and nutrition. Brown rice is 

not only more complete nutritionally; it has a wonderful nutty aroma and flavour. 

 

Polished Rice

 (white) has been bleached, cleaned, pearled (polished with talc) then often oiled 

and coated. This refining process causes the loss of its hull, bran and germ, which are removed 

from the grain (along with most of its nutrients) leaving only the starchy endosperm. As white 

rice is rather bland when eaten by itself, it is usually served under steamed or sautéed vegetables 

and topped with a flavourful sauce such as curry or peanut. 

 

Long grain brown rice 

contains fibre and the nutrient rich bran and germ, as well as the starchy 

endosperm. In addition to being more flavourful, brown rice digests more slowly, which provides 

energy over a longer period of time. Brown rice is a satisfying meal companion and can even 

serve as a main focus of a meal. While not as high in protein as wheat and some other grains 

(10%), the high quality protein in brown rice is easily utilised by the body. Brown rice is also a 

good source of the B vitamins and several mineral, including magnesium, potassium, zinc, iron 

and selenium.
