Black Rice
Black Rice is a fragrant pilaf where nutty grains are toasted with onion and slivered almonds, then simmered in bouillon for rich, savory depth. It’s an aromatic side dish with a gentle chew and toasty crunch, perfect for weeknights and versatile enough to pair with roasted meats, fish, or vegetable mains.
