The average inorganic arsenic (micrograms/serving) reported for each product category was calculated using all inorganic arsenic values. For those samples not speciated because the total arsenic was below the threshold for speciation, half of the total arsenic value was used for the inorganic arsenic value to calculate the average. For samples with the total arsenic less than the detection limit, half of the detection limit was used for the inorganic arsenic value to calculate the average. Please see the Full Analytical Results tables for rice and rice products for further information. 2An assumption was made that 1 ml = 1 g for the purposes of calculating inorganic arsenic per serving. 3The highest sample in this category was a rice bran cereal containing inorganic arsenic equivalent to 30 mcg/serving; the next highest samples in this category contained inorganic arsenic equivalent to 11 mcg/serving. 4The 16 Toddler Cereal samples are a subset of the Infant Cereal category due to potential use in both infants and toddlers. 5"Wild rice" is not actual rice. Wild rice comes from an aquatic annual grass (Zizania aquatic ) bearing edible grain.

    The Italian rice is not a commodity Paolo Carrà Chairman of the Board of Directors Ente Nazionale Risi Brussels, 4 June 2018 Ente Nazionale Risi is a public Agency supervised by the Italian Ministry of Agriculture which aims to protect the national rice production. Italy is the first rice producer in the EU Italy 52.20% Spain 25.80% Portugal 6.97% Greece 5.49% France 4.66% Romania 2.44% Bulgaria 1.78% Hungary 0.66% The Italian rice production represents 0.2% of the world rice production The names of some rice varieties grown in Italy (e.g. Carnaroli, Arborio, Vialone nano) are as important as trademarks. The rice grown in EU has been recognized by the European Commission as a public good from the environmental point of view. The rice grown in EU is sustainable from the environmental point of view and it is healthy for consumers. The rice imported into the EU is not always healthy and environmentally friendly. Sometimes the Basmati rice imported into the EU contains the fungicide Carbendazim which is banned in EU. During 2006 traces of a variety of unapproved GM rice were found in imports into EU from USA. In Italy there is the collective brand «Riso Italiano» managed by Ente Nazionale Risi. This brand guarantees the origin, nature and quality of the rice sold by Italian operators. The brand «Riso Italiano» was a good answer to the issue of unapproved GM rice imported from USA. The European rice, in particular the Italian rice, is different from rice grown in the rest of the world because it is not a commodity.

  • Prodwrkshp 3.Qxd
    California Rice Production Workshop, v15 Variety Selection and Management Introduction and History Since its beginning in 1912, California’s rice industry limited its produc - tion and marketing largely to a few short and medium grain japonica varieties, developed from stocks originating in Japan and China. These varieties produced good yields of quality rice in the dry, temperate cli - mate of the Sacramento and San Joaquin Valleys. For the grower, the choice of variety to plant was relatively simple because the few varieties available were similar in performance, yield potential and milling qual - ity when properly managed. Included were Colusa, Caloro and Calrose released in 1918, 1921 and 1948, respectively, and Earlirose, a productive, early maturing, proprietary variety, released in 1965 which soon became a popular variety for cold areas and/or late plantings. These were the major rice varieties grown in California until the early 1970’s. Then, the variety picture began to change significantly. A powerful impetus for this was the enactment of California Rice Research Marketing Order that established the California Rice Research Board in 1969. This grower initiative provided significant and regular funding to hasten development and release of new varieties. The medium grain variety CS-M3 was released in 1970 and the short grain variety CS-S4 in 1971, from rice hybridizations made in 1946 and 1957 at the Rice Experiment Station (RES) at Biggs, CA. CS-M3 gained wide acceptance and competed with the older Calrose for acreage. But, CS-S4, though an improvement over Caloro, was not widely grown because of its suscep - Publicly devel - tibility to low temperature induced sterility.

  • RICE and GRAINS
    RICE and GRAINS RICE is one of the most important foods in the world, supplying as much as half of the daily calories for half of the world’s population. Scientific name: Oryza sativa Categories: short grain, medium grain or long grain o Short grain – has the highest starch content, males the stickiest rice. o Long grain – lighter and tends to remain separate when cooked. Another way that rice is classified is according to the degree of milling that it undergoes. This is what makes a BROWN RICE different than white rice. BROWN RICE – often referred to as whole rice or cargo rice, is the whole grain with only its inedible outer hull removed. Brown rice still retains its nutrient-rich bran and germ. WHITE RICE – is both milled and polished, which removes the bran and germ along with all the nutrients that reside within these important layers. SOME OF THE MOST POPULAR VARIETIES OF RICE IN THIS COUNTRY INLCUDE: ARBORIO – a round grain, starchy white rice, traditionally used to make the Italian dish risotto. BASMATI – an aromatic rice that has a nutlike fragrance, delicate flavor and light texture. SWEET RICE – almost translucent when it is cooked, this very sticky rice is traditionally used to make sushi and mochi. JASMINE – a soft-textured long grain aromatic rice that is available in both brown and white varieties. BHUTANESE RED RICE – grown in the Himalayas, this red colored rice has a nutty, earthy taste. FORBIDDEN RICE – a black colored rice that turns purple upon cooking and has a sweet taste and sticky texture.

Apart from the typical, polished, white rice, some of the colored rice varieties are in use. Anthocyanin present in the rice outer layer contributes the color of the rice.

Microwaves have been applied for cooking, warming, and thawing food for many years. Microwave heating differs from conventional heating and may cause variation in the food quality. is study determined the quality of Riceberry rice (Oryza sativa L.) after microwave cooking using various rice-to-water ratios at three power levels (360, 600, and 900 W). e texture of all microwave-cooked samples was in the range 162.35 ± 5.86 to 180.11 ± 7.17 N and was comparable to the conventionally cooked rice (162.03 N). e total phenolic content (TPC) and the antioxidant activity of the microwave-cooked rice were higher than those of the conventional-cooked rice. Microwave cooking appeared to keep the TPC in the range 241.15–246.89 mg GAE/100 g db and the antioxidant activities based on DPPH and ABTS assays in the ranges 134.24–137.15 and 302.80–311.85 mg·TE/100 g db, respectively.

  • Mechanizing the Conditioning Process of Rice Before Puffing
    Oryza Vol. 48 No. 2, 2011 (114-118) Mechanizing the conditioning process of rice before puffing Minati Mohapatra* and S. K. Das Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur ABSTRACT The conditioning process involving slow and uniform heating of salt soaked high moisture parboiled rice coupled with turning or agitation before puffing is the most critical factor for obtaining good quality of puffed rice. A mechanized set-up has been developed to produce pre-conditioned rice for puffing with 0.0, 2.5, 3.5 and 5.0% salt (w/w). Pre-conditioning process irrespective of the salt contents continued for about a time period of 90 minutes (except for no salt condition taking about 80 minutes) till the final hardness of the grain was achieved between 44-47N. The final moisture content of the pre-conditioned grain was achieved as 10-10.30 % (wb). Percentage puffing and expansion ratio of machine pre-conditioned rice were observed as 97.8±1.26 %, 6.3±0.28 and 92.2±0.69 %, 6.4±0.22 respectively for microwave puffing and traditional puffing. Therefore, the developed machine is able to produce well conditioned rice for producing quality puffed rice.
