Sivappu Kavuni Rice

Sivappu Kavuni Arisi, also known as Red Cargo Rice, is traditional South Indian non-glutinous long-grain rice with red bran that retains all the nutrients, vitamins, and minerals. The rice gets its red colour from anthocyanin, a natural pigment that also boosts its antioxidant properties.  Unlike regular white rice, the rice has a sweet, nutty flavour and a chewy texture. It is very beneficial for people with diabetes and high blood pressure, as it has a high amount of zinc that helps lower blood pressure, regulate blood sugar levels, and prevent oxidative stress.
