Earthly Grains Long Grain White Rice (3 lb)

Earthly Grains Long Grain White Rice in the 3 lb (1.36kg) reinforced bag is a premium, high-starch culinary staple designed to provide a fluffy, distinct grain separation for a wide variety of global cuisines.

Texture & Performance Profile

The Earthly Grains experience is defined by "slender grain integrity and a light, airy finish":

• Elongated Grain Structure: Specially engineered to remain four to five times longer than they are wide, ensuring the grains stay separate and non-sticky even after thorough steaming.

• Neutral Flavor Canvas: Crafted to provide a clean, subtle base that effortlessly absorbs the complex aromatics of stocks, sautéed aromatics, and rich sauces.

• Rapid Thermal Rehydration: Formulated to cook to a tender consistency in just 15–20 minutes, making it an elite choice for high-speed weeknight meal preparation.

• Polished Surface Finish: Meticulously milled to achieve a brilliant white aesthetic, offering a professional-grade visual contrast for vibrant stir-fries and protein-heavy bowls.

Core Ingredients

The ingredient list focuses on a single, high-purity grain source enriched with essential vitamins:

• Long Grain White Rice: The primary starch source, harvested for its slender profile.

• Ferric Phosphate: An iron supplement added to restore nutritional value lost during milling.

• Niacin & Thiamine Mononitrate: Essential B-vitamins infused to support metabolic energy.

• Folic Acid: Included as a key enrichment nutrient for overall wellness.

Energy & Nutritional Profile

As a complex carbohydrate source, Earthly Grains Long Grain White Rice provides a sustained and clean energy release. A standard 1/4 cup (45g) dry serving typically provides:

Key Characteristics

• "Global Versatility" Status: This product is specifically formulated for those who require a reliable "all-purpose" rice for everything from Mexican Arroz Rojo to Cajun Jambalaya.

• Uniform Cooking Rate: Its standardized moisture content is engineered to ensure every grain reaches the same level of tenderness simultaneously, preventing "hard centers" in large batches.

• Superior Binding Agent: The fine starch released during cooking makes it a professional-grade addition to soups and stews, providing a natural body and thickness.

• Value Sizing: The 3 lb breathable poly-bag is designed for frequent use, offering a professional-grade volume that fits perfectly in standard airtight pantry canisters.

Usage Tip: The low-stick nature of this long-grain rice makes it a surprising "fried rice specialist." If you are preparing a stir-fry using Fremont Fish Market Shrimp, cooking the Earthly Grains Long Grain White Rice a day in advance and chilling it overnight will allow the grains to firm up, resulting in a professional-grade "shattered" texture when tossed in a hot wok with oil.
