Low Carb Rice

I have a rice cooker with 'low carb rice' setting. This rice cooker has a metal perforated inner 2nd bowl that holds the rice 1/2" above the water to steam this low carb rice. The default cook time is 45 minutes. On my first attempt, I used this setting and the rice came out too soft and overcooked. On my 2nd attempt, I kept everything the same except I stopped the cooking at 30 minutes... Perfect texture, great flavor. I'm very impressed. This turns out like perfectly cooked brown rice, and tastes the same to me.

Following a low-carb lifestyle, I needed a reliable rice alternative that fits my daily meals. I tried this keto rice for lunch and dinner, and it cooked quickly while keeping a firm, fluffy texture. I paired it with roasted vegetables and plant-based protein, and it absorbed flavors well. The high protein and fiber help me feel satisfied without extra carbs. It’s become a staple in my kitchen, making it easy to enjoy familiar meals while sticking to my low-carb routine.

This has a great taste and almost great texture, especially compared to other rice "substitutes". Is this replacing rice in sushi? Uh, hell no. And its the only thing I refuse to give up. But, this is a fantastic pairing for most foods I'd love to eat rice with in the past. Not really sure about the people complaining it was mush or like hard pellets, it comes out fine with each grain distinct and they dont mush together for me like so many other products that attempt to be a rice substitute. Each grain DOES have a bit of a firm bean-like texture though. Even after reheating. Im enjoying this far more than the other substitutes: heart of palm rice (too much of a sour flavor even after soaking to adjust Ph levels), shiritaki (rubber band texture), cauliflower (Now THIS one gets too mushy for me), and even daikon (which ends up being tolerable to me after a soak for many other dishes but not at all a rice sub imo). I also never got any bloating or nausea at all so I guess your mileage may vary.

A great substitute for rice, in taste, texture and preparation. Great way to get protein allocation when on keto diet.

Is this rice? No, but it mimics the texture and is a perfect vehicle as a side dish for us Keto dieters. I miss rice and used to eat rice everyday and I'm tired of spending so much on $$ on rice alternatives, this is the closest thing I could find that helps bulk my meal and fix my rice craving. It has a lot of fiber so I feel full....definitely eat a smaller portion to prevent being bloated and super gassy. The other reviewer about the farts is true, so eat it in smaller portions and not everyday. I boiled mine with triple amount of liquid to rice for 10min and let it sit for 10min to have it super soft like orzo. I don't like my "rice" crunchy. Boiled it with a savory broth like veg or chicken and onion and garlic powder and salt and it will be delicious. Because it's made out of beans it is has a slight bean flavor almost like hummus or chickpeas but that doesn't bother me..the pros out weigh the cons! I'd rather eat something similar to rice and pasta vs never having it again. Plus it soaks up any flavor or seasonings you add to it. Photo is a taco bowl I made with a fourth of one rice pkg, ground beef, and taco toppings. The price does suck but I get three rice portions out of one package and I don't eat it for every meal!

I was VERY pleasantly surprised- this is really a great tasting alternative to rice! If you expect it to taste and feel EXACTLY like regular rice, then just eat regular rice, and don't complain about the carbs/ protein! It is a thicker "grain" and has a nice mild flavor almost similar to a pasta. After the cooking time, sample a little bit- I cooked mine just a tiny bit longer, to avoid a still too-hard center, but it came out perfectly after just a couple more minutes. Tastes fabulous in a casserole, and you'll barely notice the difference! I quite prefer this, actually! Yes it's a little pricey, but totally worth it in my opinion!

It was ok, has an odd texture and after taste I didn’t really care for.

Package directions are spot on. Its earthy flavor pairs well with beef. Also nice with mushrooms (risotto). Great for keto meal prep as it reheats well.

Will order product again but may order from another company as its a bit cheaper else where.

Follow the exact instructions and it will be perfect. I let it cool and I add some olive oil. Its a very very good alternative to rice! I had my doubts and now I am sold, and it cooks in 5-6 mins!

I used this in a casserole...perfect. Love it.

Love it

These products are great tasting perfect for a low carb meal but it gives you the satisfaction of feeling like you eating real Pasta and I don't feel deprived at all
