I've lived in Puliangudi, Tamil Nadu for some time and had to eat them for breakfast often.
The texture is like porridge when you use too much wheat or not enough milk. Their usually served warm but cool off quikly.
They taste slightly sour and have a faint rice taste.
I thought they were horrible and prefered rice or chappati. I guess that's just a question of taste 'cause I know some people who like them very much.
With the right curry or chutney they're not that bad though.

Idli rice is a specific type of parboiled rice used primarily in South Indian cuisine to make idli, a popular steamed rice cake. It is often milled to a slightly coarse texture, which helps in fermentation when mixed with urad dal (black gram). This fermentation process is essential for producing soft and fluffy idlis. Idli rice is typically rich in nutrients and has a unique flavor that enhances the dish.
