Here is my ultimate rice guide to make picking the right one easy. 

Short Grain Rice:
This is the most common type of rice around the world and is eaten by billions of people every day. 

It's soft, clumpy, and doesn't require as much water to cook as other types. 

Basmati Rice:
Basmati rice has an Asian origin and is known for its long, slender appearance. 

This will need to be washed well before cooking, but the end result is nutty and delicious. 

Purple Rice:
This is another Asian type of rice that is worth the time and energy to prepare. It will need more water added and takes longer to cook/steam, but the taste and texture are incredible. 

This is considered to be the healthiest rice option on this list. 

Brown Rice:
Similar in size and shape to short-grain rice, it has a rougher texture and requires more water to cook. 

The end result is a really delicious chew. 

Arborio Rice:
This is an Italian rice often used for dishes like risotto and rice pudding because of its high starch content. 

This rice will require close attention and ongoing additions of moisture while cooking. 

Jasmine Rice:
While not the most nutritious, this rice is known to be easier to digest overall. 

It's a lovely, soft long grain variety known for its distinctive floral scent. 


Rice can be the perfect addition to any meal, but knowing the differences in taste and texture can really kick up your dish to the next level. 

Be sure you save this for later.
