SE GROCERS White Rice, Enriched, Medium Grain (5 lb)

SE GROCERS White Rice, Enriched, Medium Grain, is a pantry staple for countless cuisines around the world, and especially beloved in the Caribbean, Latin American, Asian, and African communities we serve here at StoresGo. This 5-pound bag of medium-grain white rice is perfect for everything from fluffy side dishes to the base of hearty stews and flavorful main courses. The 'enriched' designation means that essential vitamins and minerals, often lost during the milling process, have been added back in, contributing to a more nutritious meal. Medium-grain rice strikes a wonderful balance between long-grain and short-grain varieties; it cooks up tender and slightly sticky, making it ideal for soaking up sauces and gravies. In Caribbean cuisine, think of rice and peas (using coconut milk and kidney beans), a classic accompaniment to jerk chicken or curried goat. Latin American dishes like arroz con pollo (rice with chicken) or arroz con gandules (rice with pigeon peas) are equally delicious and showcase the versatility of this rice. Asian stir-fries, fried rice, and rice bowls all benefit from the satisfying texture of medium-grain rice. In many African countries, rice is a staple, often served with flavorful stews and sauces. To prepare, rinse the rice thoroughly under cold water to remove excess starch. This helps prevent stickiness. Use a ratio of 2 cups of water for every 1 cup of rice. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until all the water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork before serving. Store in a cool, dry place in an airtight container to maintain freshness. Customers love this rice for its consistent quality, affordability, and ability to complement a wide range of dishes. It's a reliable choice for everyday meals and special occasions alike.
