First time making black rice. Almost as good as 7-Eleven in /bangkok. 

- 30 min cooking black rice with 2:1 ratio water:rice and then let the rice sit to rest
- I sprinkled sea salt and some butter on top of the rice as it was resting
- Shrimp was cooked in ginger, garlic, turmeric, and soy sauce with sriracha drizzled on top

Geng mak! 🙏🏻🇹🇭

Comparing the nutrition of black rice and quinoa last night I realized black rice is only a few net grams of carbs more (1/4 cup serving size) than quinoa.

I'm thinking about adding black rice into my weekly lunch rotation of healthy slow carbs currently including switching off between half a sweet potato and quinoa days.

Black rice is a great alternative! It offers similar carbs to quinoa but with extra antioxidants. Your rotation idea sounds smart for balanced nutrition - variety helps ensure you get different nutrients. Just watch portions since carbs can add up quickly.
