Black Rice is nutty with a soft texture. It’s known as “Forbidden Rice” or “longevity rice;” I read that an ancient legend claimed that it was eaten exclusively by the emperors of China to increase health and ensure a long life. The fresh mango and orange offer sweet and bright flavors in this salad recipe; the peanuts add a great crunch. This recipe comes from Bon Appétit and the only change we made was to omit the fish sauce and replace it with coconut aminos.
