Red and Black Rice with Leeks and Pea Tendrils NEW YORK TIMES - RECIPES FOR HEALTH I made this on impulse when I found pea tendrils at the farmers’ market this week, but you don’t have to put aside the recipe until spring brings them to your markets — use baby spinach instead. The dish is inspired by a recipe for farro and black rice with pea tendrils from Suzanne Goin’s “Sunday Suppers at Lucques." INGREDIENTS: • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil • 2 leeks, white and light green parts only, halved lengthwise, cleaned and sliced thin • Salt to taste • 2 teaspoons thyme leaves • 3 cups cooked Wehani rice or Bhutanese red rice • 1 cup cooked black rice, either Japonica or Chinese black rice • 1 6-ounce bunch pea tendrils, ends trimmed, washed and spun dry, or 1 6-ounce bag baby spinach • Salt and freshly ground pepper Preparation: Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil over medium heat in a large, heavy skillet, and add the leek and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until the leeks soften, about three minutes. Stir in the pea tendrils or spinach. Cook, stirring, until they wilt, about three minutes for pea tendrils and one minute for baby spinach. Season to taste. Add the thyme, the remaining olive oil and rice, and stir until the mixture is combined. Season with freshly ground pepper, adjust salt and serve. Yield: (serves 4 to 6) Advance preparation: The dish will keep for three to four days in the refrigerator and can be frozen.

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.

The main compounds in black rice were anthocyanins (3.5 mg/g), with cyanidin 3-O- glucoside and peonidin 3-O-glucoside predominating, followed by flavones and flavonols (0.5 mg/g) and flavan-3-ols (0.3 mg/g), which comprised monomeric and oligomeric constituents. Significant quantities of γ-oryzanols, including 24-methylenecy- cloartenol, campesterol, cycloartenol, and β-sitosterol ferulates, were also detected along with lower levels of carotenoids (6.5 μg/ g). Red rice was characterized by a high amount of oligomeric procyanidins (0.2 mg/g), which accounted >60% of secondary metabolite content with carotenoids and γ-oryzanol comprising 26.7%, whereas flavones, flavonols and anthocyanins were <9%. Brown and white rice contained lower quantities of phytochemicals, in the form of flavones/flavonols (21−24 μg/g) and γ- oryzanol (12.3−8.2 μg/g), together with trace levels of the carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin. Neither anthocyanins nor procyanidins were detected in brown and white rice.

Quick, Easy, Whole Grain Recipes for Families
QUICK, EASY, WHOLE GRAIN RECIPES FOR FAMILIES WHOLE GRAIN PITA PIZZA Makes 2 servings 2 round 6-7” whole wheat pitas 6 oz spaghetti sauce (about 1/4 of a typical jar) 3 oz part-skim shredded mozzarella cheese 1 cup chopped vegetables (onions, peppers, mushrooms, spinach, olives—your choice) Drizzle of olive oil 1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Spread half the sauce on each pita round. If you’re using chopped fresh spinach, add it now, before the cheese, so it won’t dry out too much. 2. Top with cheese, divided between the two pizzas, and then vegetables. Drizzle with oil. 3. Bake for 15 minutes on a pizza pan or cookie sheet. Much healthier than store or restaurant pizza because you have a whole-grain crust, plenty of vegetables and a reasonable amount of cheese. Add small bits of Italian chicken or turkey sausage if you like. Kids love to decorate their own pizzas! IRISH OATMEAL WITH APPLES Makes 4 servings 1 cup steel-cut oatmeal 4 cups water (we use slightly less) 4 small apples or pears, washed, cored and chopped (no need to peel them) Dash of cinnamon and/or nutmeg 1 handful walnuts or pecans (optional) Enough milk (soy milk and cow’s milk are both good) 1. Measure oats into saucepan and add water. In general you want about 1/4 cup oats and one cup water per person. Use less water next time if you like drier oatmeal. 2. Bring to a boil, then simmer “actively”—keep temperature where the oatmeal will bubble a lot but won’t start rising up the pan.

One of that was the deficiency of some essential amino acid in the diets. Riceberry has recently been developed in Thailand. This new variety of colored rice has a dark purple seed coat containing anthocyanin which acts as an antioxidant. Similar to normal rice, riceberry lacks lysine which plays an important role in maintaining body systems through hormone release and muscle mass maintenance. To enrich ready-to-eat rice products, red bean was added as a natural amino acid source. This formulated product had higher protein and ash content, while energy, fat and carbohydrate content were not different from the control. The essential amino acid profile of the product was complete and product shelf life was 6 months with an unchanged texture.

Health-Promoting Compounds in Pigmented Thai and Wild Rice
foods Article Health-Promoting Compounds in Pigmented Thai and Wild Rice Valentina Melini * and Rita Acquistucci Consiglio per la Ricerca in Agricoltura e l’analisi dell’economia Agraria—Centro di Ricerca CREA-Alimenti e Nutrizione, Via Ardeatina 546, I-00178 Rome, Italy; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +39-06-51494-656 Academic Editor: Anthony Fardet Received: 28 October 2016; Accepted: 12 January 2017; Published: 20 January 2017 Abstract: Organic pigmented Thai rice and wild rice are commonly available in specialized Italian markets and food shops, and they are gaining popularity among consumers demanding healthy foods. Indeed, the typical colour of kernels, which is the unique characteristic of pigmented cereals, is due to the accumulation of pigments that are also responsible for a number of healthy effects. The aim of this study was to provide a portrait of two organic pigmented Thai rice varieties from Thailand and one wild rice variety from Canada, imported into Italy and at Italian consumers’ disposal. To this end, the proximate composition and the content of health-promoting compounds, such as carotenoids, anthocyanins and phenolic compounds, were determined in Thai and wild rice. Moreover, the effect of cooking on phytochemicals was assessed, in order to provide reliable data on the dietary intake of bioactive compounds by samples under investigation. Results show that studied samples have a content of phytochemicals higher than white rice and comparable to other cereals. The cooking process determined a decrease of bioactive compounds in all varieties under investigation. However, some samples were found more resistant to cooking stress, and some phytochemicals were little affected by this process.
