Basmati Rice - Aged Long Grain, Fluffy Texture With Unique Nutlike Aroma And Royal Quality

The name Basmati comes from the Hindi language, meaning 'Queen of Fragrance'.
Indian Basmati Rice has been grown in the foothills of the Himalayas for thousands of years. Its perfumy, nutlike flavour and aroma can be attributed to the fact that the grain is aged to decrease its moisture content. When cooked, it swells only lengthwise, resulting in long slender grains that are dry, separate and fluffy.
Due to the high amount of starch clinging to the rice grains, Basmati rice should always be washed before being cooked.
Basmati rice is known as the queen of rice. It is long grained, non glutinous and particularly good for formal rice cooking. Basmati Rice is a simple grain yet throughout history it has been on royal menus of various cultures as the main dish
