LIGHT BROWN RICE
In light brown rice, almost 50% of the bran is removed, whereas with brown rice, the bran layers are left intact. Brown rice is a whole grain, light brown rice is not, even though it is sometimes erroneously referred to as such. However, you will not find the Whole Grain Council’s whole grain stamp on any light brown rice product. Light brown rice was created to provide a faster cooking time—20 minutes instead of the 45 minutes for regular brown rice—by polishing off the bran layers, the rice cooks more quickly. Also, some people don’t like the nutty flavor of brown rice but want an alternative to white rice. Light brown rice also has more fiber than white rice, although less than regular brown rice. The serving sizes are the same.

RiceSelect Organic Brown Rice Mixes
Side Dishes Of Tasty, Organic Brown Rice
CAPSULE REPORT: The USDA recommends three servings of whole grains daily. An easy way to get them is by serving brown rice at dinner. RiceSelect has six flavored rice mixes, based on a strain of basmati called Texmati (it’s grown in Texas). There are three 100% whole grain brown rice mixes, which do qualify for your daily allocation, and three light brown rice mixes that are more refined and don’t—but are still more nutritious than white rice. The mixes simply require water, butter and simmering for 20 minutes or more. The line is USDA-certified organic and certified kosher. The company makes a standard (non-organic) line of rice mixes along with plain brown or white organic rice, specialty rices, couscous and orzo.

Rice Glossary
Basmati, the rice variety used in India and by many fine chefs in the U.S., is a longer, more elegant grain that stays firm and separates after cooking—no clumpy rice. The makers of RiceSelect were the first to grow basmati rice successfully in the U.S., along the Texas Gulf Coast. They developed a portfolio of gourmet rice varieties, and then began to grow organic rice, available in brown as well as and white. You can purchase them in the company’s signature packaging (see photo at right) at fine food stores.
Next, to help busy people—or those who just don’t like to spend much time in the kitchen—the company developed what on their website is called “side dishes,” and we’ll call rice mixes. After all, if you’re a vegetarian, brown rice can be more of a main event than a side.
Rice Mix Flavors
While the flavor variations aren’t enormous, there’s enough differentiation among the rices to provide variety, if you wanted to have them several times a week.
Light Brown Rice Mixes
A word about light brown rice mixes: They taste good, but don’t give you the whole-grain nutrition that standard brown rice supplies. That’s because, while the endosperm is not fully milled, it’s partially milled. So these rices don’t get the Whole Grain Council’s 100% Whole Grain stamp, which you’ll see on the front of the box in the Brown Rice Mixes section...
What you do get is a shorter cooking time (half, in fact—20 minutes), and perhaps more familiarity from family members, especially young ’uns, who may not care for regular brown rice but will enjoy the soft sweetness of the light brown variety. All of the mixes look attractive, with abundant flecks of herbs throughout.
