Different Types of Grains - Grain and Rice Cooker

What are Grains?

There are two main types of grains: cereal grains and pseudocereals. Cereals are considered “true grains,” as they’re derived from cereal grasses. Pseudocereals are not derived from cereal grasses and are often gluten-free. Each grain has a unique flavor, texture, and nutritional profile.

Grains consist of three parts: the bran, germ, and endosperm. Each carries important nutritional benefits, which can help you create delicious and nutritious recipes. The bran is the outermost layer of the grain and contains vitamin B, minerals, and fiber. The endosperm is the middle portion of the grain, packed with protein and carbohydrates. The remaining innermost portion of the grain is the germ, which contains vitamins, proteins, minerals, oils, and antioxidants.
