Long grain brown rice is the everyday whole-grain workhorse — versatile, filling, and nutritionally superior to white long grain rice. These certified organic long grain brown grains from Just Natural Organic cook to a firm, separated texture with a pleasantly nutty flavour, making them an excellent everyday rice for curries, grain bowls, salads, and as a simple side dish.
Retaining the full bran and germ layers, long grain brown rice provides significantly more fibre, magnesium, B vitamins, and antioxidant phenolic compounds than white rice, with a lower glycaemic index supporting more gradual energy release.

Use as an everyday rice side dish, in grain bowls, fried rice, stuffed peppers, rice salads, and soups. Rinse well, cook 1:2 ratio for 30–35 minutes, rest 10 minutes.

FAQs
Is long grain brown rice the same as other brown rices?
Brown rice refers to any rice variety that retains its bran layer — the difference is the grain shape. Long grain has slender grains that separate when cooked. Short grain has rounder grains that are more cohesive. Both are nutritionally similar; choose based on the dish and texture required.
Is rice gluten-free?
Yes — all rice is naturally gluten-free.
How long does it take to cook?
30–35 minutes in a 1:2 ratio (rice:water). Soaking for 30 minutes beforehand reduces cooking time to around 25 minutes. Rest 10 minutes after cooking.
