Black rice, also known as forbidden rice, derives its name from when it was first cultivated for the sole consumption by the emperor in China. It is still cultivated in small quantities, and is not as popular as brown or white rice.

It has a rich, nutty flavor and pairs beautifully in sweet dishes, such as this one where it is combined with coconut.
