Kaizen Food Company Low Carb High Protein(20gr) Pasta Rice - Gluten Free, Keto Friendly, Plant Based, Made with high Fiber Lupin Flour - 226 Gr (Pack of 3)

Follow the exact instructions and it will be perfect. I let it cool and I add some olive oil. Its a very very good alternative to rice! I had my doubts and now I am sold, and it cooks in 5-6 mins!

I have a rice cooker with 'low carb rice' setting. This rice cooker has a metal perforated inner 2nd bowl that holds the rice 1/2" above the water to steam this low carb rice. The default cook time is 45 minutes. On my first attempt, I used this setting and the rice came out too soft and overcooked. On my 2nd attempt, I kept everything the same except I stopped the cooking at 30 minutes... Perfect texture, great flavor. I'm very impressed. This turns out like perfectly cooked brown rice, and tastes the same to me.

The product is good. Not a rice but a good substitute. Slightly heavier than rice so you need less to get full.

I was VERY pleasantly surprised- this is really a great tasting alternative to rice! If you expect it to taste and feel EXACTLY like regular rice, then just eat regular rice, and don't complain about the carbs/ protein! It is a thicker "grain" and has a nice mild flavor almost similar to a pasta. After the cooking time, sample a little bit- I cooked mine just a tiny bit longer, to avoid a still too-hard center, but it came out perfectly after just a couple more minutes. Tastes fabulous in a casserole, and you'll barely notice the difference! I quite prefer this, actually! Yes it's a little pricey, but totally worth it in my opinion!

Is this rice? No, but it mimics the texture and is a perfect vehicle as a side dish for us Keto dieters. I miss rice and used to eat rice everyday and I'm tired of spending so much on $$ on rice alternatives, this is the closest thing I could find that helps bulk my meal and fix my rice craving. It has a lot of fiber so I feel full....definitely eat a smaller portion to prevent being bloated and super gassy. The other reviewer about the farts is true, so eat it in smaller portions and not everyday. I boiled mine with triple amount of liquid to rice for 10min and let it sit for 10min to have it super soft like orzo. I don't like my "rice" crunchy. Boiled it with a savory broth like veg or chicken and onion and garlic powder and salt and it will be delicious. Because it's made out of beans it is has a slight bean flavor almost like hummus or chickpeas but that doesn't bother me..the pros out weigh the cons! I'd rather eat something similar to rice and pasta vs never having it again. Plus it soaks up any flavor or seasonings you add to it. Photo is a taco bowl I made with a fourth of one rice pkg, ground beef, and taco toppings. The price does suck but I get three rice portions out of one package and I don't eat it for every meal!
