What about S&W® Brown rice? In its most natural state, rice arrives at our mill with an outer hull. And, just like S&W® Extra Long Grain White Rice, our brown rice is grown in the U.S.A., and is Kosher approved.
S&W® Brown rice is the rice grain with only the outer hull removed. The fiber and nutrient-dense bran layers cover the white inner part of the grain. These bran layers have a light brown color, and contribute a subtle nut-like taste and somewhat chewy texture.
S&W® Brown rice contains naturally occurring rice bran oil. For increased shelf life, it is recommended that brown rice be refrigerated.
Natural brown rice is a good source of whole grain dietary fiber which, as a part of a total diet plan, has been shown to reduce the incidence of some forms of cancer and coronary heart disease. S&W® Brown rice is naturally sodium free, cholesterol free, and has no saturated fat. S&W® Brown rice is available in 14oz., 28oz., and 3lb. sizes.
