What are the edible parts of rice?

Answer 1

The bran and the endosperm are the parts of rice which commonly are deemed edible.

Specifically, the bran is accessed by removing the inedible hull and glume. It manifests itself in market stalls and on grocery shelves as brown rice. Removing the bran layer yields the edible endosperm, which becomes white rice once it is separated from the embryo which it surrounds.
