Rice is a staple ingredient in many modern kitchens.
There are lots of different kinds of
rice and each one has its own distinct properties and flavors.
But what do you know about
red yeast rice? Is this new to you?
The chances are it may be, but it is worth taking an interest in it.
The appearance of this
rice is rather different to other types of rice.
Instead of having the typical look of a long
grain of rice it appears more like a pellet.
It also gets its name from its eye catching red
color, so as soon as you see it you will know what it is.
Asian cooking is particularly
amenable to red yeast rice and as far as the cooking method is concerned there isn’t much
difference to normal rice.
However with that said it contains yeast.
This means it is fermented and thus is used with
other ingredients rather than simply being eaten on its own.
Using it in this way enhances
its many tasty properties.
Chinese people have been known to grind the rice into a powder
to use it more as
