A Simple Way to Eat Healthy Without Daily Soaking & Cooking

Many people want to include black rice in their daily diet because of its nutritional value.
But traditional black rice takes time, planning, and effort.

Raw black rice usually needs 8 hours of soaking before cooking. Even after soaking, it takes longer to cook compared to regular white rice. Because of this, many people avoid using black rice regularly, even though it is healthy.

Cooked & Dried Black Rice solves this problem in a simple and practical way.


What Is Cooked & Dried Black Rice?

Cooked & Dried Black Rice is traditional black rice that is:

  1. Soaked and fully cooked in clean water

  2. Carefully dried to remove moisture

  3. Packed for longer shelf life

It is real cooked rice, not artificial instant food.
The rice is dried only to remove moisture, so it can be stored safely and used when needed.


Why Black Rice Is Usually Difficult to Cook

Traditional black rice has a hard outer layer compared to white rice.
Because of this:

  • It needs around 8 hours of soaking

  • Cooking time is longer

  • Daily preparation becomes inconvenient

This extra effort is the main reason black rice is not used regularly in many homes.

By soaking and cooking the rice in advance and then drying it, this effort is removed without changing the nature of the food.


How Cooked & Dried Black Rice Makes Life Easier

With cooked & dried black rice:

  • Long soaking is already done

  • Cooking is already completed

  • Only rehydration is required

This saves time while still allowing you to eat real, traditional food.


How to Use Cooked & Dried Black Rice

Take the required quantity of rice.
Add hot water and allow it to soak for 5 to 8 minutes.
Once the rice becomes soft and fluffy, use it just like freshly cooked rice.

It can be eaten with:

  • Vegetable curries

  • Dal, sambar, or rasam

  • Simple meals for travel or recovery


Is Cooked & Dried Black Rice Different From Instant Rice?

Yes.

Instant rice is often heavily processed to reduce cooking time.
Cooked & dried black rice is fully cooked first, then gently dried.

The grain structure remains natural.
Only water is removed.


Is This Suitable for Daily Meals?

Yes.
It can be used regularly as part of a normal diet, just like cooked rice.

Because the rice is already cooked, it is also easier to digest when rehydrated properly.


Who Can Benefit From This Product?

  • People who want to eat black rice without long preparation

  • Elderly people who prefer simple, soft food

  • Travellers carrying homemade meals

  • Busy households

  • Anyone avoiding preservatives and artificial instant foods


Is Cooked & Dried Black Rice Safe?

Yes, when prepared hygienically and stored correctly.

Drying removes moisture that causes spoilage.
No artificial preservatives are required when moisture is controlled and packaging is airtight.


Does Drying Reduce Nutrition?

Drying mainly removes water.
The rice itself remains the same.

Since the rice is cooked gently and dried carefully, it retains its essential food value compared to over-processed instant foods.


How Long Can It Be Stored?

When stored in a cool, dry place and kept sealed:

  • Shelf life is much longer than cooked rice

  • Suitable for planned meals and emergency food use

Always keep the pack tightly closed after opening.
