I am about to start cooking, but I have no idea how carbohydrates are measured in rice!
I have a limit of 100g of carbs per day.
The packet says 100g of rice contains 78g of carbohydrates. This falls within my daily limit, so all good there!
However, I can't find any info anywhere on whether the 100g of rice is its dry, uncooked weight or the weight after it has been cooked?
If it is dry, then that's easy enough - just weigh 100g of rice and then cook it. If it is the cooked weight, then how much dry rice produces 100g of cooked rice?
Having just recently being diagnosed, there is sooooooo much I have to learn!
