Red rice is a variety of rice that is coloured red by its anthocyanin content. It is usually eaten unhulled or partially hulled and has a red husk, rather than the more common brown. Red rice has a nutty flavour. Compared to polished rice, it has the highest nutritional value of rice eaten with the germ intact.
