Wehani rice is a very different rice experience: it's nutty, chewy and distinct; it's almost a different thing than rice entirely. There are a lot of nutritional benefits, including vitamins and minerals. Wehani rice is delicious and versatile and can be made in VitaClay just like any other rice--try it today! 

The dried fruits, veggies and sauce add a nice tang to this light, delicious meal. It makes a great snack or a wonderful side for chicken or fish. 

Oriental Wehani Rice Salad can also be prepared and served hot as a side dish with a protein like; duck, chicken of fish. If served cold it's a refreshing, light snack.
