The purple rice gives a more beautiful and glamorous presentation to your kimbap (sushi rolls), bibimbap rice bowls or any rice bowls (not just Korean).
If this is your first time making Korean rice, you might be surprised by how little black glutinous rice is needed. Do not exceed the amount of black rice as stated in the recipe. using will result in a very dark shade of rice.
Check out the ingredients and step-by-step photos on the previous page.
Ingredients:
- 3/4 cup (150g) short-grain white rice
- 1/2 level tsp glutinous short-grain black rice

I love the colour…a great trick to use black to turn the white one into purple.
OMG! When I read purple rice, I thought it’s cooking the uncooked purple/black grains, now knowing it’s actually a little black rice making the white rice purple! I also enjoyed the purple rice served in a Korean tofu hotpot (soon dubu) over here.
I like soon dudu too! :o
