SHIRATAKI (KONJAC) RICE — LOW-CALORIE RICE ALTERNATIVE
Shirataki rice is a rice-shaped alternative made from the natural fibre (glucomannan) found in the root of the konjac plant. It is very low in calories and digestible carbohydrates, and being flavourless, it takes on the taste of whatever you cook it with — making it an easy swap in your favourite rice dishes.
WHAT MAKES IT SPECIAL
Made from konjac fibre and water, shirataki rice is naturally very low in calories and digestible carbs, gluten-free and vegan-friendly, which makes it popular for low-carb and keto-style eating. It cooks in minutes and absorbs seasonings and sauces beautifully.

A low-calorie, high-fiber rice alternative made from organic konjac root.
Shirataki rice is commonly chosen as a rice alternative for blood sugar-conscious meal plans because of its extremely low net carb content and zero glycemic impact. The glucomannan fibre does not raise blood glucose levels. If you have a diagnosed condition and are managing your diet medically, we recommend consulting your healthcare provider — but shirataki rice is one of the most widely studied low-carb staple foods available.
Shirataki rice is made from glucomannan, a natural fibre found in the root of the konjac plant, together with water (and a little citric acid). This gives it a rice-like shape and texture while being very low in calories and digestible carbohydrates. It is flavourless, so it takes on the taste of your dish.
Open the pack, drain the liquid, and rinse the rice well under cold water for a minute or two. Then add it to your stir-fry, soup, curry or salad and heat it through for two to three minutes. Rinsing and heating well gives the best texture.
