Pumpkin Herb Rice

Why people make this rice

Pumpkin rice started life as humble farmhouse fare for lean times, but Nourilo points out it is genuinely good for you — especially for over-fed middle-aged folks and people watching their blood sugar. Pumpkin is sweet and warm in nature and traditionally associated with supporting the centre and boosting the qi; modern study notes it contains cobalt and other substances and is favoured by those managing blood sugar. Finished with a scatter of parsley, it makes a wholesome, comforting bowl.
