In the Slow Food movement, we promote the consumption and production of heirloom grains like adlai and heirloom varieties like Jeykot, Minaangan or generally Tinawon (meaning once a year) rice. Why is it premium – adlai and heirloom rice? Why must we care about the price of rice, adlai and heirloom rice? I wish I could explain better why heirloom rice and adlai are better for you. Meantime, I hope to share with Alvin and Doris about heirloom rice and adlai.
