Review: I had never heard of Black ( Forbidden ) Rice before, so began investigating it. It is, apparently, almost a super food with lots of healthy and beneficial enzymes in it. I decided to try it and found that health benefits aside, this rice is delicious. I normally eat brown rice, which is better for you than regular white rice, but this has an entirely different, unique taste that I love. I truly recommend to rice lovers, give it a try, you will like it, and it's really healthy for you. Bon appetit.
Review: This black rice is definitely pricier than the grocery store ones. Especially the Asian grocery stores. However, if there isn't one around you or you don't have time for a grocery store run, this is definitely a good one to turn to. We like the flavor and healthiness, but you definitely need to cook them for a longer period of time and soak them beforehand. We usually mix this with white rice so it's not as hard to digest.
