Medium Grain

Our medium grain rice is white rice kernels about 6 millimeters long and somewhat wider than long-grain varieties; cooks up soft. The River® Enriched White Rice and Water Maid® Enriched White Rice are both first quality, medium grain rice products.

River® rice is available in a 2 lb. poly bag. It's easy to prepare, economical, versatile, and a healthy complement to any meal. River® rice is grown in the U.S.A. and is Kosher approved. Families can trust River® to cook into fluffy white rice. River® is naturally sodium free, cholesterol free, and fat free.

Cooking Directions - On the Stove

In a saucepan, bring 2 cups water to boil. If desired, add tub margarine and salt. Stir in 1 cup of rice. Cover. Reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes or until all water is absorbed. Makes about 3 cups cooked rice.

Cooking Directions - In the Microwave

In a 2 quart microwave-safe dish combine 2 cups water and 1 cup rice. If desired, add tub margarine and salt. Cover and microwave on HIGH for 5 minutes. Reduce setting to 50% power, microwave for 15 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes. NOTE: It is recommended that only 1 cup rice be prepared in the microwave at a time. Microwave ovens vary. Cooking times are approximate.
