Description
Kerala Matta rice, also known as Rosematta rice, Palakkadan Matta rice, or Red parboiled rice, is a distinctive variety of rice that originates from the Indian state of Kerala. It is celebrated for its unique taste, robust texture, and a plethora of health benefits, making it a cherished component of the culinary landscape in Kerala and among health-conscious consumers worldwide.
Characteristically, Kerala Matta rice boasts a reddish-brown outer layer, owing to its unpolished nature. This variety of rice undergoes a different processing method compared to white rice. It is parboiled, which means the rice is partially cooked in the husk before milling. This process not only imparts the grains with a rich, nutty flavour but also preserves much of its nutritional value. The grains are larger and possess a coarser texture than the typical white rice varieties, requiring a longer cooking time.
Nutritionally, Matta rice is a powerhouse. It is rich in dietary fibre, which aids in digestion and promotes a feeling of fullness, supporting weight management efforts. It also contains a significant amount of vitamins and minerals, including Vitamin B6, iron, magnesium, and calcium, contributing to overall health and well-being. The presence of antioxidants in the rice, particularly anthocyanins in the outer layer, makes it beneficial for heart health and may provide anti-inflammatory effects.
