Benefits & uses
Key compounds and nutrition
Black rice (Oryza sativa) gets its deep purple-black colour from anthocyanins, the same natural antioxidant pigments found in blueberries. As a whole grain it also provides fibre, protein and iron.
Traditional use
Once reserved for royalty in ancient China and known as “forbidden rice”, black rice is also grown traditionally in north-east India, where it is known as chak-hao in Manipur.
