Why dont chinese restaurants serve whole grain rice?!
Answers:
They cannot afford to and who really would eat whole grain fried rice or whole grain steamed rice, UGH!!!Www@FoodAQ@Com
also it is cooked in large rice cooker or steamer, and time is of the essences, white rice can be done after rinsing in 15-20 minutes brown or whole grain can take 45-60 minutes to cook and still tends to be a but chewy due to the outer bran husk!.
I am a former chef and have heard this debate for years, and most Asians prefer the lighter less filling flavour of the "polished" rices, have the bran a nd germ removes is alot more convenient and is less trouble cookingWww@FoodAQ@Com

because that more like a "health" food, ans its more expensive, if you notice the restaurants that do serve it upon request, the price will be slightly higher, and the might be more concious as to what, and how they servWww@FoodAQ@Com
Asians usually eat white rice!. My mom (who is Vietnamese) never even had whole grain/brown rice till she went to the Americanized Chinese restaurant PF Chang's here!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Because most people in China eat white rice!. They like the white smooth taste instead of grainy taste in rice!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
