Rice with a length that is four to five times its width. The rice is fluffy and dry when cooked and because of its low starch content, the rice separates easily without excessive stickiness. Long grain rice is available in different varieties, such as aromatic, white and brown. Rice can be steamed or baked and is used in salads, main dishes or casseroles, and side dishes of rice.
