About rice
Rice is a nutritious, low-fat food consisting of
complex carbohydrates and is rich in vitamins such
as thiamin, niacin and iron. Rice is an essential part
of a healthy diet.
There are numerous different types of rice on the
market. Every sort of rice can be cooked to perfection
in the SOLIS Rice Cooker „2 in 1“. What follows is
a list of the varieties of rice generally available and
their particular properties.
Long-grain rice
Starch-free long-grain rice typically has a grainy
consistency, even after cooking. While “California”
rice is soft, “Carolina” rice is rather more fibrous.
Spicy and aromatic “Jasmin” rice, however, is the
most fibrous of all the long-grained rice varieties.
Short-grain rice
This rice has a soft and sticky consistency. It is the
rice of choice for sushi. “Sweet Rice”, also known as
“Pearl Rice” (owing to its round shape), is extremely
sticky and ideal for rice pudding.
Brown rice
Brown rice is the healthiest rice available as it is still
coated with bran and is especially rich in the B
vitamin complexes, iron and calcium. It is more
fibrous than polished white rice. The brown rice most
frequently used is a long-grained rice with a sticky
consistency.
Wild rice
Wild rice is available in several different variations
and mixtures. Wild rice is often mixed together with
long-grain rice. It varies in colour between brown and
black and is fibrous in texture. Wild rice can be mixed
with dried fruit, too, and makes a wonderful addition
to soups and cooked poultry.
