Parboiled rice (also called converted rice and easy-cook rice or bonnet) is rice that has been partially boiled in the husk. The three basic steps of parboiling are soaking, steaming, and drying. These steps make the rice easier to process by hand, while also boosting its nutritional profile, changing its texture, and making it more resistant to weevils. Selected from the finest varieties in Malgaron Thessaloniki ideal for risotto and rice pilaf.

Rice is the staple food of over half the world's population. It is the predominant dietary energy source for 17 countries in Asia and the Pacific, 9 countries in North and South America and 8 countries in Africa. Rice was known to the Classical world, being imported from Egypt, and perhaps west Asia. It was known to Greece (where it is still cultivated in Macedonia and Thrace) by returning soldiers from Alexander the Great's military expedition to Asia. Large deposits of rice from the first century AD have been found in Roman camps in Germany.
