Our friend Guy Matsuda at Plainfield Pottery introduced us to this rice dish. The rice-grain mixture is more interesting and nutritious than plain white or brown rice. It produces a dish that is chewy from the whole grains, but still neutral enough in flavor to not compete with what else you’re serving with the rice. The grains in the Sukoyaka Grain Mix include Sprouted Brown Rice, Hulless Barley, Rye Berries, Whole Oats, Red Rice, Purple/Black Barley, Wild Rice and Bamboo Rice. Must be healthy, right? I found it locally in an Asian market. It’s really worth checking out as a great alternative to plain white rice.
