Medium Grain Rice

Rice is often characterized as one of three varieties - long grain, medium grain,
or short grain rice, which refers to the length and shape of the grain. The grain size affects the texture of the rice, therefore long grain, medium grain, and short grain rice are all used for different cooking applications.

Medium Grain Rice
• Shorter and wider than long grain rice
• Chewy, tender, and slightly sticky texture when cooked
• Medium grain rice is commonly used to make risotto, paella, and side
dishes
