Red-Cargo Rice

Red Rice, known as Man Pu Rice, is a traditional rice variety characterized by its distinctive reddish bran layer, resembling the color of crab fat. It is classified as brown rice or partially milled rice, retaining its natural bran layer. This rice contains a similar fat content to brown rice, which is approximately twice as high as that of polished white rice.

Red Cargo rice is a type of non-glutinous long grain rice that is similar to brown rice, in that it is unpolished. The color of the bran is red, purple, or maroon. The husks of the rice grains are removed during the milling process, retaining all the nutrients, vitamins, and minerals intact in the bran layer and in the germ.Read more
