Culinary Uses

Matta Rice, also known as Kerala Red Rice or Palakkadan Matta Rice, is a popular variety of rice cultivated primarily in the Palakkad district of Kerala, India. Known for its robust flavor, distinct earthy taste, and reddish-brown husk, Matta Rice stands apart from polished white rice varieties due to its coarser texture and higher nutritional value. Its unique reddish hue comes from the presence of the outer bran layer, which is retained during minimal processing, giving it a distinct look and added health benefits.
