Wild rice is the edible seed of an aquatic grass, used as a cereal food. The figures here describe wild rice boiled in unsalted water. It mainly provides carbohydrate, with some protein and fibre. Per 100g, it contains 32g of carbohydrate, 5.3g of protein and 2.5g of fibre, and provides 620 kJ of energy.
Carbohydrate supplies energy, while protein helps maintain and repair body tissues. Fibre supports normal bowel function. Wild rice prepared this way contains little salt or saturated fat. Added salt, sauces or fats will change the nutritional content of the finished dish, which is relevant for people monitoring these in their diet. Full nutritional figures are provided in the tables below.
