Description:
Basmati rice means the "queen of  fragrance or the perfumed one." Grown in the foothills of Himalaya, this true basmati has been aged for a minimum of two years. Basmati is gaed to decrease its moisture content.  This aging method intensifies the aromatic traits of this rice dramatically, giving it a fragrant, nutlike flavor and aroma.  Basmati Rice is easily the finest aromatic rice in the world!

Suggested Use:
Basmati Rice is superb when steamed with aromatic spices and has long been known as the fragrant breakfast rice.  Excellent in Thai style pork stew, Indian vegetable rice, popcorn chicken, curries and dessert puddings.  The fragrant taste and firm texture of Basmati Rice goes well with spicy curries or stir-fry.  Substitute in any recipe calling for long grain White Rice.
