Andy's Charleston Gold Brown Rice is a firm textured, long-grain, aromatic rice, with a wholesome, nutty flavor. Whole grain with the fibroid bran and nutritious gram intact and with a unique green hue noting the presence of natural chlorophyll, the Charleston Gold Brown Rice is firmer and requires a slightly longer cooking time. Delicious simply boiled or steamed, the rice is also a secret ingredient for adding another layer of flavor to your favorite recipes.
Our Process:
Unlike modern rice that is often grown in sandy clay and harvested from multiple growers, we grow our rice in peaty fields that are mineral and nutrient rich. We’re close enough to the ocean to flood our fields by the motion of the tides, but far enough inland to receive natural freshwater river irrigation which makes for delicious rice and a more sustainable farming method. We also use traditional rotational crop methods as part of our land stewardship program. After the harvest, the rice is dried and kept in its husk to maintain freshness. As needed, it is cleaned and milled in small batches. It is minimally processed and polished to ensure no flavor is lost. The bags are heat sealed to further preserve freshness.
Storage:
After opening, please refrigerate or freeze for optimal flavor. The rice will keep for years in the freezer, but we guarantee it won’t last that long once you start cooking with it.
