This is our elegant first-born - the first of the Grain Guru rice mixes. Korean medium grain is not your typical white rice; it keeps its shape once cooked and has a firm texture. It's slightly bigger than the sushi rice and has a faint scent. This a rice to try when you’ve truly mastered cooking white rice. It tastes beautifully on its own - the perfect blank canvas for the typical Korean table setting. We’ve decided to lace this with a bit of bulgar wheat.
Bulgar wheat gives, what would be blank carbs, a boost of protein and fibre. When cooked together, the bulgar wheat gives the rice a rich, yellow hue, which is why we’ve named this Grain Guru rice mix: Golden Era.
Combining Korean medium-grain rice with a touch of bulgar wheat, we've created a golden blank canvas for you to paint your flavour masterpieces on!
Because it keeps it's shape and stays firm once cooked, Korean grain rice is ideal for when you want rice to take centre stage in your dishes.

Purple rice is not sticky and glutenous like Black rice, and is slightly lighter in colour. The colour also leeches in cooking, giving it a royal purple finish (as opposed to black). This blackish-purple pigment is known as anthocyanin and is found in other dark plants such as aubergine, blackberries and purple corn. This compound is getting a lot of attention these days because of its anti-oxidant properties that are both fat and water-soluble.
Purple rice is high in fibre, iron and protein, which makes it a great supplement in a plant-based or a calorie-controlled diet.
It can be eaten in place of white or brown rice as a better nutritional choice. Another way is to mix a teaspoon of purple rice into your raw white rice (sushi, jasmine or parboiled) and change the rice into a bright purple colour for the kids to gawk over. Carbohydrates don't have to be white nor do they have to be empty.
This product used to be called Wild Rice, however following some customer feedback we've decided to rename it to Purple Rice to avoid confusion any confusion with other wild rice varieties.

In the class of rice, red rice is the A-student; rich in micro-nutrients, it's a cut above brown rice. It has a long, narrow grain with a burnt-orange coloured hull. Its chewy, al dente texture makes it an interesting companion in salads, curries and congee (rice soup). Mostly eaten in South and South East Asia, it can be eaten sweet or savoury.

Unlike most other rice types, sushi rice is made up of short, round grains. When cooked, they are slightly sticky which makes them easy to form shapes for nigiri, maki, temaki and more. Sushi rice can be eaten plain, with a gravy or stir-fried. We love sushi rice because it's an incredibly versatile staple and can be eaten hot or cold.
