DRUKCAN Taichin Beaten Rice (Rato Chiura) is made from parboiled red rice that is flattened into thick, robust flakes with a distinctly earthy, slightly nutty flavor and a satisfying chew. Rato chiura has deep roots in the hilly regions of Nepal where red rice varieties have been cultivated for centuries. Unlike white chiura, the red variety carries more body and nutrition, and its hearty texture holds up beautifully in both dry snack mixes and when soaked with yogurt and achar. DRUKCAN sources quality red rice and processes it using traditional methods to preserve that authentic grain character. For Nepali families abroad, rato chiura is a direct connection to the hill community food culture that defined so many everyday meals.
