This is a striking, earthy grain with a deep purple hue, a rich nutty taste, and a chewy texture that makes every bite memorable.

This is black rice, grown in the small, rain-fed farms of Manipur where it’s known as Chakhao and treasured for generations. Naturally high in fiber, iron, and powerful antioxidants like anthocyanins, this rice gets its distinctive colour from the same compound that gives purple fruits and vegetables their pigment. It’s a grain with both deep flavour and deep roots.

Black rice has a slightly sweet, toasted flavour and a hearty texture that holds up well in both sweet and savoury dishes. Traditionally, it’s cooked into fragrant rice puddings or served alongside simple, spiced vegetables. It also makes a bold base for salads, grain bowls, or even stuffed vegetables. Soaking the rice before cooking helps it open up just enough while preserving its signature chew.

To store black rice, transfer it to an airtight container, ensuring it's completely dry, and place it in a cool, dark pantry away from heat and moisture.

Rinse and cook with a 1:2.5 rice-to-water ratio until tender. Let it rest covered before fluffing. Enjoy its nutty taste, vibrant color, and health benefits. Add a pinch of salt and oil for extra flavor. Accurate measurements lead to a satisfying outcome.
Q. What gives black rice its color?
A. The dark color of black rice is due to the presence of anthocyanins, which are powerful antioxidants also found in foods like blueberries and purple grapes.

Q. Are there different types of black rice?
A. Yes, there are different varieties of black rice. Some popular types include Thai black rice, Chinese black rice, and Indonesian black rice. They might vary slightly in taste and texture.
