A Bit about Bits ‘n Pieces: Rice Middlins

Rice middlins are simply the smaller, broken pieces of grain that are produced during the hulling and processing of rice. Use, not waste. It’s no surprise an ingredient that embodies such a humble philosophy has played an important part in many culinary traditions.

We’re lucky to have gotten our hands on Carolina Gold rice middlins - a smaller, more playful texture than rice, and each grain still manages to stands alone in your mouth. Think not grits, not risotto, but a creamy & rich bite unique unto itself.

Try them with our Sunday Night Fried Chicken Dinner. Comforting, rich, and not too serious, Sunday nights are a favorite at Hunky Dory. Pairing perfectly with fried chicken is a chilled glass of Huber “Hugo” sparkling rosé - the elegant acidity, creamy palate, and perfect tiny bubbles are all a fried chicken’s best fried. Or go classic with a cold tall boy of ‘gansett. Either way, it’s a tasty Sunday night.
