White Basmati Rice Organic (Sold In Bulk)
White basmati rice is a fragrant, long-grain rice that is commonly used in Indian, Middle Eastern, and Mediterranean cuisines. It has a delicate, floral aroma and a light, fluffy texture when cooked, making it ideal for dishes like biryanis, pilafs, curries, or simply as a side dish to accompany meats, vegetables, or legumes.
Unlike other white rice varieties, basmati rice has a slightly nuttier flavor and stays separate when cooked, which is great for recipes that require the rice to be distinct and not too sticky. It’s also known for its low glycemic index compared to other white rice, making it a bit better for blood sugar control.
To cook it, rinse the rice well before cooking to remove excess starch, and use about 1.5 cups of water for every cup of rice. If you prefer a fluffier texture, you can also soak the rice for 20-30 minutes before cooking.
