Snagged a bag of thai black rice while I was at the Korean market yesterday for a change of pace, it's really good stuff.
It's a sweet rice and very clumpy, tastes like brown rice but a but nuttier and a really neat texture.
Turns a very dark purple color when cooked.
Supposed to be a "super food" too, don't know about that. From what I read most of the things it has in it that health nuts want don't actually make it past digestion.
Like brown rice you need to refrigerate or freeze it if you're not going to use it up in a couple months as it can get rancid.
I was actually there for a new rice cooker, they didn't have a programmable one like I wanted.
