Rice

Rice is a cereal grain, and has the second highest worldwide production of any grain after maize (corn). Rice is a vital staple food for a large part of the world's population. It is mainly cultivated and eaten in South East Asia, but is also relied on as a source of food and sustenance in India, parts of Africa and in South America. This could be why much of the rice eaten in the Western world is enjoyed with Chinese or Indian food. Both filling and nutritious, rice is an important part of many of our diets. Enjoy various kinds and qualities of rice with innumerable different dishes including paella and rice pudding.
