Gotta agree with that one! On a tangent, my local supermarket has just
started doing over the last couple of years and I've found one called
"Nanking black rice", which I absolutely love. It is indeed pitch black, has
the same dieing qualities as squid ink, and is a short grain rice similar to
risotto, with a very nutty flavour. It has quickly become my favourite. Has
anyone seen this before? The packet says it's from China but I never
realised they had black rice.
