Bhutanese red rice is grown in the Paro Valley of Bhutan at elevations of 8000 feet. It is a beautiful russet color with a flavor that reminds me of tea. It is whole grain, high in fiber, and a good source of potassium and magnesium. I have combined this rice with coconut milk, fresh ginger, lemongrass, and pandan leaf to make an exotically flavored rice pudding. (Note: the photo doesn't do this justice - it's actually a lovely pink color.) - hardlikearmour
