Hulled Rice: How to Cook It and What to Do with It



I started eating pearled barley a few weeks ago, but really wanted to try hulled. I had a hard time finding it in grocery stores, so I ordered it from here and it's even tastier than pearled! I eat it for breakfast with a little butter, but I'm running out already! I'll be ordering more! Shiloh Farms was really fast getting it to me, even during Covid.

When just harvested from sesame plants, sesame seeds are embedded in a seed coat, or hull. Most sesame seeds in this country are sold with the seed coat removed, but the unhulled kind (also labeled natural) is a staple in Japan and becoming increasingly available in natural foods stores in the United States.


We tasted hulled and unhulled seeds raw and toasted and found in both cases that the unhulled seeds were crunchier and almost hard. Unhulled seeds also tasted slightly bitter, which is due to the oxalates (the same compounds in spinach) in the hull. In sesame cookies, most tasters preferred the hulled seeds for nutty, clean flavor, although a few tasters liked the added complexity that the faint bitterness of the unhulled seeds provided.


THE BOTTOM LINE: Unhulled seeds will work fine in recipes calling for hulled (conventional) sesame seeds, but be aware that they will have a firmer texture and a slightly bitter flavor.


Our organic hulled cardamom is an incredibly rich and aromatic spice with a distinct, citrusy, spicy flavor. Cardamom seeds can be ground fresh and added to curries, rice dishes, breads, and sweet pastries. Elettaria cardamomum is an integral ingredient in chai tea blends and is also added to coffees and liqueurs.


Sesame seeds are often considered one of the healthiest foods in the world and rightfully so. These nutty, crunchy and buttery seeds are packed with a lot of nutrients and can prove to be amazing for your health. Not only are they included in many cuisines around the world but are available in many varieties as well. The two of the most commonly used sesame seed varieties include hulled sesame seeds and unhulled sesame seeds. There is often a comparison done between these two varieties and for your reference, we have brought a few of the main differences between the two.


DescriptionsHulled sesame seeds are those kinds of sesame seeds from which the outer covering or hulls have been removed during the manufacturing process. On the other hand, unhulled sesame seeds are those which have their husk or hulls intact and not removed.


Iron and calcium contentAs far as the iron and calcium content is concerned, there is a huge amount of difference between the two varieties of sesame seeds. Where on one hand, 1 tablespoon of hulled sesame seeds consist of 0.7 milligrams of iron and 11 milligrams of calcium, unhulled sesame seeds consist of 1.3 milligrams of iron and 88 milligrams of calcium. This means that unhulled sesame seeds are a much better source of iron and calcium as compared to hulled ones.


VitaminIt is a fact that 1 tablespoon of hulled sesame seeds consist of 8 micrograms of dietary folate and 6 units of Vitamin A. 1 tablespoon of unhulled sesame seeds on the other hand consist of 9 micrograms of dietary folate and 1 unit of Vitamin A. This means that there is a huge contrast in the amount of Vitamin A presence in both these varieties, hulled seeds proving to have more of it.


Other mineralsLike many other nutrients, there is a difference and contrast in the number of minerals present as well in the hulled and unhulled sesame seeds. 1 tablespoon of hulled sesame seeds consists of 66 milligrams of phosphorus, 29 milligrams of magnesium, 35 milligrams of potassium and 0.9 milligrams of zinc. On the other hand, the same quantity of unhulled sesame seeds consists of 57 milligrams of phosphorus, 32 milligrams of magnesium, 42 milligrams of potassium and 0.7 milligrams of zinc.


Wet hulled coffees are known for their extremely rich and strong, syrupy body, but devoid of sweetness and with a really low acidity. They may have a slight tobacco profile, but when I think of wet hulled coffee, I think of average, inconsistent flavours.


The answer: body. These coffees are highly sought after, since a small amount of them will seriously boost the body of a blend. Even as a mere 10% of a blend, it will have a big impact on the flavour. Be careful, though: too high a percentage of wet hulled coffee will create a muddy, even dirty, taste. Make sure you experiment with the proportions to find the perfect ratio.


Love it or hate it, "wet-hulled" coffee's unique flavor profile is immediately recognizable in your cup. But what makes it taste that way? Many coffee drinkers are oblivious to the process that creates these flavors, for a few reasons:


"Wet-hulled" is easily confused with "wet-processed," another term for "washed," which is the world's most common coffee processing method. But the two processes produce dramatically different results: wet-hulling emphasizes body and mutes acidity, while wet-processing highlights delicate acidity and sweetness.


3) A typical washed coffee would now dry to 10-12% moisture content inside the parchment (a thin layer protecting the inner seed) over a period of weeks. Instead, wet-hulled coffee is dried for just a few hours, until it reaches about 50% moisture, at which point the bean is still swollen inside the parchment.


6) The mill then air-dries the hulled coffee to 12-13% moisture. Without the protective parchment layer the coffee dries quickly, but it's exposed to wider temperature variation as well as ambient yeast and bacteria.


The extracts from white-, black-, and red-hulled rice were prepared by sequential extraction with six different polar solvents, and their radical-scavenging activities were measured by methods using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH*) and tert-butyl hydroperoxyl radical (t-BuOO*). The extracts prepared with highly polar solvents, methanol and deionized water, exhibited higher DPPH* and t-BuOO* scavenging activities in all three cultivars. In addition, the acetone extract from red-hulled rice exhibited a high DPPH* and t-BuOO* scavenging activity, while no such activity was detected for the acetone extracts from white- and black-hulled rice. The major components responsible for the radical scavenging in the acetone extract from red-hulled rice were identified as procyanidins by acidic hydrolysis, vanillin assay, and Sephadex LH-20 chromatography. GPC analysis of the acetylated procyanidins revealed that the average molecular weight is about 5000, in a range of about 500-18,000.


Common Bermudgrass is a warm season, perennial grass known for its versatility and persistence in southern pasture and turf. Plant hulled seed in the warmer months of the year once soil temps reach at least 65 degrees. Non-GMO


For turf applications, plant 2-3 lbs per 1,000 square feet of unhulled and 1-2 lbs per 1,000 square feet of hulled. For pasture applications, plant 8-12 lbs per acre of unhulled and 5-10 lbs per acre of hulled. For best results, spread seed on a well-prepared, firm seed bed then roll or pack it in. Seed should not be any deeper than 1/4 inch.


A double-hulled tanker refers to an oil tanker which has a double hull. They reduce the likelihood of leaks occurring compared to single-hulled tankers, and their ability to prevent or reduce oil spills led to double hulls being standardized for oil tankers and other types of ships including by the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships or MARPOL Convention.[1] After the Exxon Valdez oil spill disaster in Alaska in 1989, the US Government required all new oil tankers built for use between US ports to be equipped with a full double hull.


A number of manufacturers have embraced oil tankers with a double hull because it strengthens the hull of ships, reducing the likelihood of oil disasters in low-impact collisions and groundings over single-hull ships.[2] They reduce the likelihood of leaks occurring at low speed impacts in port areas when the ship is under pilotage. Research of impact damage of ships has revealed that double-hulled tankers are unlikely to perforate both hulls in a collision, preventing oil from seeping out. However, for smaller tankers, U shaped tanks might be susceptible to "free flooding" across the double bottom and up to the outside water level each side of the cargo tank. Salvors prefer to salvage doubled-hulled tankers because they permit the use of air pressure to vacuum out the flood water.[2] In the 1960s, collision proof double hulls for nuclear ships were extensively investigated, due to escalating concerns over nuclear accidents.[3]


The ability of double-hulled tankers to prevent or reduce oil spills led to double hulls being standardized for other types of ships including oil tankers by the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships or MARPOL Convention.[1] In 1992, MARPOL was amended, making it "mandatory for tankers of 5,000 dwt and more ordered after 6 July 1993 to be fitted with double hulls, or an alternative design approved by IMO". However, in the aftermath of the Erika incident of the coast off France in December 1999, members of IMO adopted a revised schedule for the phase-out of single-hull tankers, which came into effect on 1 September 2003, with further amendments validated on 5 April 2005.[4]


Although double-hulled tankers reduce the likelihood of ships grazing rocks and creating holes in the hull, a double hull does not protect against major, high-energy collisions or groundings which cause the majority of oil pollution, despite this being the reason that the double hull was mandated by United States legislation.[7] Double-hulled tankers, if poorly designed, constructed, maintained and operated can be as problematic, if not more problematic than their single-hulled counterparts.[2] Double-hulled tankers have a more complex design and structure than their single-hulled counterparts, which means that they require more maintenance and care in operating, which if not subject to responsible monitoring and policing, may cause problems.[2] Double hulls often result in the weight of the hull increasing by at least 20%,[3] and because the steel weight of doubled-hulled tanks should not be greater than that of single-hulled ships, the individual hull walls are typically thinner and theoretically less resistant to wear. Double hulls by no means eliminate the possibility of the hulls breaking apart. Due to the air space between the hulls, there is also a potential problem with volatile gases seeping out through worn areas of the internal hull, increasing the risk of an explosion.[8] 2ff7e9595c
