Hello good,

Lately I get the rice quite a lot and I have read that there is Konjac rice that almost does not have carbohydrates (I wanted to try it to make rice with milk, since I like sugar and not throw sweeteners).

Does anyone know how to tell me a brand with which good and the hit?

Thank you so much!

All the best.

The Konjac is not a rice is a tuberculo to which they crush it so that it is in the form of rice, which sugars it because it depends on the type of db that you have but as if it is done to the raw carrot, by the way we all go up to us allenough the "damn" rice: D: D

I cook with integral rice and the truth is that at the moment I feel good, I do (my son) rice to the Cuban, paella, ... tomorrow for example I will make oven rice, the only thing is that it takes a long time to cook, the first time my husband made the paella with whole rice we started eating almost at 4 hahaha

If the rice is washed before the starch is removed and their carbohydrates lower.

In any case I do not take much rice.Practically once a month.I prefer to drink vegetable and fruit carbohydrates!

In the Carrefour of my city there are spaghettis, noodles and rice.In my opinion it is not worth it.They are expensive and have no flavor, absorb the taste of the condiments with which you cook and already.The texture is insulse and insipid.In my opinion it is much better to eat less number of integral pasta but if you want

Once the rice is cooked, whether integral or whatever, wash it with cold water in a drainer, you achieve two things on the one hand short cooking and keep it at its point and on the other hand you eliminate a lot of HCs in the form of starch

Yes, I tried it a few months ago because I couldn't stand more to eat pasta.Tell you that Konjac's rice is like spaguettis only cut in rice.I guess you will have read about this food but what specialized websites say is true is a food that does not feed anything, it is 99 % water and 1 % fiber (I think they were going there the percentages), it does not know anything at allBut absorve the taste of what you cook with what you have to be very careful to know howYou are going to stay hungry if you only eat this for what you have more than older just in case.

I already tell you that I see the price and how I preferred other options, I prefer to eat 20g of pasta paste than 200 of Konjac but it is my experience, try it that maybe it is worth it.

Many grace @Alberto_13, I wasn't doing well.I try this weekend.

Thank you very much for the information @colt, for now the truth that the paste does not give me those peaks.I still try it someday (taking into account what you tell me about the flavors) to have a plan B if any food or the dessert tells me

The integral rice takes a lot to cook and has the same hydrates as the normal but its curve is a bit lower.
As for flavors, rice does not know anything, absorbs flavor according to cooking.Hence the important thing about smoking.

I don't think of the pasta, I don't like it, I haven't eaten it in the last 40 years, I don't stand it.I vomit if I feel it on the palate.
