About Calrose rice

Calrose rice is a medium-grain rice variety developed in California. It is used as a table rice and in dishes where a tender, cohesive cooked grain is useful; it is not interchangeable in texture with long-grain rice.

The uncooked grains are relatively short and plump. When cooked, they become soft and somewhat sticky while retaining individual grains. Calrose is sold as white rice and may also be available in brown form; milling and cooking method affect its appearance and texture.
