My Sasun Basmati Rice |10lb

Basmati rice is a North Indian variety of rice grown in the foothills of the Himalayas that has nutty and floral flavors. Agrawal reports that the best quality basmati rice has a very long grain that is slightly tapered at the end. It should be golden rather than white, showing it has been aged. Basmati rice is typically available in white and brown varieties. White basmati rice is more common, but brown basmati rice can be found at many health food stores. Brown rice is higher in fiber and has a nuttier, more intense flavor with a stiffer texture. It also has a longer cooking time than white rice.
