The 1000 g pack of brown rice is recommended for those who prepare it daily or weekly. The larger size offers a better unit price and, with fewer trips to the shop, provides a long-lasting reserve. We work with Hungarian harvested rice: this not only guarantees fresh quality but also supports the Hungarian economy and shortens the food's journey from field to table.
The health benefits of brown rice are well known: it is a rich source of fibre, containing significant amounts of B vitamins, magnesium and manganese. Thanks to its lower glycaemic index, it is also a more appropriate choice for diabetics than white rice. The wholegrain form is more filling and supports balanced eating through a lasting feeling of fullness.
Use in the kitchen
Prepare it as a side dish by adding 2 cups of water to 1 cup of brown rice, salting it, bringing it to the boil and then simmering covered on low heat for 30 minutes. After cooking, it is worth resting it covered for 5–10 minutes so the grain steams through fully and takes on a light, fluffy texture.
It is extremely versatile: you can make risotto, stuffed peppers, vegetable-chicken one-pot meals, salads or even sweet versions — simmered with coconut milk and cinnamon it becomes a delightful dessert. With the larger pack, it is worth cooking ahead and freezing in single portions.
