Are rice and wheat both rice?

Neither rice nor wheat is rice. Rice is a common food crop, and its seeds are called rice. After processing, rice can be obtained by removing rice husk and rice bran layer, but wheat and rice have nothing to do at all. Wheat can be processed to obtain flour.

Like our village, if we are not friends who often work in the south, we have basically never seen any rice.

Because our side is mainly wheat, I also asked a few friends in the south about it. Similarly, they didn't really see wheat many times. Let us know the difference between rice and wheat.

Are rice and wheat both rice?

Neither rice nor wheat is rice. Only rice can be processed into rice. There is no "gliadin" in rice.

So there is no elasticity and toughness at room temperature, but after "high temperature", rice will go through the process of gelatinization-aging-extension, which can be further processed into rice noodles, rice noodles and rice cakes.

How to distinguish the living environment between rice and wheat

First of all, the living environment is the easiest to distinguish. Judging from whether there is water in the field, wheat is dry land and rice is paddy field (but rice also has upland rice, which needs to be judged according to the following conditions). This is the simplest way to judge.

Shape and form

Judging from the thickness of leaves, the leaves of wheat are thicker than those of rice, while the leaves of rice are long, flat and different in color. If it's not easy to see from the leaves, look down.

Wheat (figure)

Judging from the shape and morphology of wheat, the shell color of wheat looks like yellow. But it feels black and smooth. Among them, there are grooves on the ventral surface (it is easy to judge), and when the shell is not removed, the wheat is oval.

The shell color of rice looks yellow, but it is golden yellow, and the surface feels a little rough. When not shelled, the rice grains are slender.

Growth habit

Furthermore, from the growth habit, wheat is a temperate long-day plant, while rice is a short-day plant that likes high temperature and high humidity. If you don't understand well, for example, wheat can grow in winter, but rice can't.

Functional use

Finally, from the use analysis, wheat can be ground into flour to make steamed bread, steamed buns, noodles and other foods, while rice can be made into rice, porridge and steamed rice.

To sum up, in fact, rice and wheat are easy to distinguish, but some of us have not actually seen them. I hope this article can give you some help, and when you really meet these two crops, you can make a correct judgment and won't make jokes.
