What is rice?
Rice feeds more people than any other single food on Earth. From silky risotto to sticky sushi rice to crispy fried-rice leftovers, it stretches a small amount of protein into a full meal and soaks up sauces beautifully.

Storage tips
- Uncooked white rice keeps in a sealed container for up to 2 years. Brown rice keeps 6 months due to its oils.
- Cooked rice keeps 4–6 days in the fridge. Cool it quickly and store within an hour to keep it safe.
- Freeze cooked rice in flat bags for up to 3 months, reheat from frozen in a pan with a splash of water.
