"Venere"

Dark foods are not for everyone. However, there are some that are just succulent. Like Venere rice, a rare variety product of a combination between Chinese black rice and Italian rice, that renewed my love with 'wild rice'. The taste is nutty, aromatic; the texture, with a soft crunch. I prepared it by chopping a shallot, a clove of garlic, and olive oil before adding water/stock, then cooked it for 40 min.
If you see it, get it and give it a shot!
