紅(hong)(hong)曲(qu)米(mi)(mi)，中藥名(ming)。以秈(xian)稻、粳稻、糯(nuo)米(mi)(mi)等稻米(mi)(mi)為(wei)原(yuan)料，用紅(hong)(hong)曲(qu)霉菌發酵而成，為(wei)棕紅(hong)(hong)色(se)或紫(zi)紅(hong)(hong)色(se)米(mi)(mi)粒。

紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)曲(qu)(qu)(qu)米外皮(pi)呈紫紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)色(se)，內心紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)色(se)，微(wei)有(you)酸味(wei)，味(wei)淡，它對蛋(dan)白質(zhi)有(you)很強(qiang)的(de)(de)(de)著色(se)力，因此常(chang)常(chang)作(zuo)為(wei)食(shi)品(pin)染色(se)色(se)素(su)。紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)曲(qu)(qu)(qu)米與(yu)化學合成紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)色(se)素(su)相(xiang)比，具有(you)無(wu)毒、安(an)全的(de)(de)(de)優點，而且還(huan)(huan)有(you)健脾消食(shi)、活(huo)血(xue)化瘀的(de)(de)(de)功效。在烹飪中，紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)曲(qu)(qu)(qu)米的(de)(de)(de)應(ying)用較為(wei)廣泛，可用于(yu)燒(shao)(shao)菜染色(se)，如江蘇(su)名菜櫻桃肉(rou)、無(wu)錫(xi)排骨的(de)(de)(de)制作(zuo)；又(you)可用于(yu)燒(shao)(shao)臘、醬(jiang)鹵食(shi)品(pin)，如廣東叉燒(shao)(shao)和某些鹵水的(de)(de)(de)制作(zuo)；還(huan)(huan)可用于(yu)紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)腸(chang)一類的(de)(de)(de)灌(guan)腸(chang)上色(se)，以及(ji)配制糖醋(cu)、西汁等(deng)復合味(wei)時調色(se)。此外，粥飯、面(mian)食(shi)、腐(fu)乳、糕點、糖果(guo)、蜜餞等(deng)在制作(zuo)中也經常(chang)用到紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)曲(qu)(qu)(qu)米。

紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)曲(qu)(qu)(qu)米(mi)(mi)(mi)在飲食(shi)行(xing)業里一般(ban)又叫紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)曲(qu)(qu)(qu)，其實(shi)紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)曲(qu)(qu)(qu)就(jiu)是曲(qu)(qu)(qu)霉科真菌———紫色紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)曲(qu)(qu)(qu)霉，又稱(cheng)紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)曲(qu)(qu)(qu)霉，用它接種(zhong)寄生于粳米(mi)(mi)(mi)上，方可稱(cheng)為紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)曲(qu)(qu)(qu)米(mi)(mi)(mi)，所以(yi)說(shuo)，這里米(mi)(mi)(mi)僅(jin)(jin)僅(jin)(jin)是載(zai)體(ti)。紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)曲(qu)(qu)(qu)米(mi)(mi)(mi)的生產(chan)工藝(yi)包括浸米(mi)(mi)(mi)、蒸飯、晾飯、接種(zhong)、推曲(qu)(qu)(qu)、搓曲(qu)(qu)(qu)、上鋪(pu)、噴水拌曲(qu)(qu)(qu)、出曲(qu)(qu)(qu)曬干等工序(xu)。一般(ban)從(cong)米(mi)(mi)(mi)飯培養至(zhi)出曲(qu)(qu)(qu)，大約需4天左右，紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)曲(qu)(qu)(qu)米(mi)(mi)(mi)米(mi)(mi)(mi)粒外表便全(quan)部(bu)呈紫紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)色，經晾干或烘干即成。而(er)在成品紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)曲(qu)(qu)(qu)米(mi)(mi)(mi)中(zhong)，仍有一部(bu)分色菌在繼續發酵，最(zui)終使(shi)紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)曲(qu)(qu)(qu)米(mi)(mi)(mi)中(zhong)殘(can)存的白(bai)心(xin)紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)透，所以(yi)民間(jian)有陳(chen)年紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)曲(qu)(qu)(qu)米(mi)(mi)(mi)比新貨好的說(shuo)法。

黑米和(he)紅曲(qu)米是不同的東西。

紅(hong)曲(qu)米(mi)，也(ye)叫紅(hong)曲(qu)；赤曲(qu)；紅(hong)米(mi)；福米(mi)。

紅曲(qu)米(mi)是棕(zong)紅色(se)或紫紅色(se)的米(mi)粒(li)。它是經過加(jia)工過的米(mi)， 是以(yi)秈(xian)稻、粳稻、糯(nuo)米(mi)等(deng)稻米(mi)為原料,用紅曲(qu)霉(mei)菌(jun)發(fa)酵而成(cheng),為棕(zong)紅色(se)或紫紅色(se)米(mi)粒(li).

黑米(mi)是(shi)稻米(mi)中的(de)珍貴品種，屬(shu)于糯(nuo)米(mi)類。

黑(hei)米是由禾本科植(zhi)物稻經(jing)長期培育形(xing)成的一類特色(se)品種。秈(xian)稻和糯稻均有黑(hei)色(se)品種，其中(zhong)黑(hei)米也分(fen)秈(xian)米型和粳米型兩類。

黑(hei)米(mi)外表墨黑(hei)，營養豐富，有“黑(hei)珍珠”和“世(shi)界米(mi)中之王”的美譽。
