Purple rice is a variety of rice, belonging to the glutinous rice category. It is only cultivated in a small amount in Sichuan, Guizhou, and Yunnan. It is a more precious rice variety, divided into two types: purple japonica and purple glutinous rice. The purple rice has uniform particles, purple-black color, sweet taste, sweet but not greasy. Purple rice is used to cook rice, which is extremely fragrant and waxy. As a tonic, it is called purple glutinous rice or "medicine valley". The rice porridge boiled with purple rice is bright, oily, soft and palatable. Because of its rich nutrition and good nourishing effect, it is called "blood-tonifying rice" and "longevity rice". The taro and purple rice porridge is super simple and nutritious.
