Amazon Grocery, Brown Long Grain Rice, 5 Lb

Good rice. At least as good as the store brand stuff from my grocery store anyway. Cooks well, tastes good, and cheaper than the grocery store.

This is brown rice, what is there to really say? It's easy to rinse before use. I've never really paid attention to grain length since I'm not trying to write my name on it at a mall kiosk. I have a rice cooker, so I don't pay attention to the cook time, but I think in general, brown rice might take a little longer than white rice. Once cooked, it has a nice, soft, light sticky texture with homey, aromatic flavor. It did take maybe 3 weeks to arrive though. It's a good value and I planned ahead.

If you are managing your Glycemic Index (GI) or tracking your glucose spikes with a CGM, this brown rice is a fantastic pantry staple—specifically because of how well it handles "retrogradation." Many budget brown rices turn into a mushy porridge when cooked, but this variety maintains a distinct, firm structure. This is crucial for health-conscious cooks because grain integrity is directly linked to digestion speed. The firmer the grain, the slower the gastric emptying, and the lower the insulin spike. My "Longevity" Preparation Method: I use this rice specifically for the "cooling hack" to increase resistant starch. I cook a large batch with a teaspoon of coconut oil, let it cool in the fridge for 24 hours, and then reheat it throughout the week. Texture: Even after reheating (I use the steam function on my rice cooker), these grains don't disintegrate. They stay separate and chewy, which is exactly what you want for lower GI impact. Flavor: It has a mild, nutty profile that pairs well with healthy fats (like olive oil or avocado) without overpowering them. Value: Compared to premium health-store brands, the quality control here is surprisingly high. I found very few broken kernels or husks in the bag. The Verdict: If you are just boiling rice to eat immediately, this is tasty. But if you are using food science techniques (like cooling and reheating) to turn your carbs into functional prebiotic food, this rice is the perfect substrate. Highly recommended for meal preppers.

What can I say? This is brown rice exclamation it's good it cooks well I'll definitely buy it again

Of course you have to wash brown rice but there is A LOT of dirt and debris in this rice. The price is great all things considered just make sure you wash VERY THOROUGHLY

This brown rice has a slight nutty flavor that's lacking in white rice. Cooks easily in a rice cooker. Very tasty.

Great value for the price! I use this brown rice in soups and for grinding for rice flower. Stores easily in dry container.

This rice is good if u cook it the right way. The instructions say to boil rice and water then cook on low for 45 minutes. This makes the rice mushy! I found out by accident that if u boil the rice and water for 5 min., then cook on low for 25 or 30 min the rice comes out nice and firm! Let the rice sit covered for a least 10 min to soak up the rest of the moisture.
