Bamboo Rice is also known as “mulayari” or “bamboo pith,” is a type of rice that is grown in the bamboo shoots of certain bamboo species. It is a specialty rice that is found in parts of India, particularly in the Northeastern states, as well as in some Southeast Asian countries. Bamboo rice has a distinctive flavor and is rich in nutrients, including proteins, fibers, and various minerals. It is traditionally prepared by boiling the bamboo shoots and then removing the soft, inner pith, which is then ground into flour and used to make various dishes. Bamboo rice is often used to make porridges, breads, and other traditional dishes.
