White rice has the hull, bran and germ polished off, while brown rice has only the hull removed. While brown rice undeniably contains more nutrients, it is much harder to digest, making white rice, particularly basmati, the preferred grain of Ayurveda. The best white rices have been aged and can be stored on a cool, dark shelf. Brown rice contains the germ and is therefore more perishable and should be stored in the fridge or freezer.
