Naturefest Basmati rice is a type of long, slender-grained fragrant rice native to India. White basmati rice has more calories and carbohydrates than plain white rice. It also has a little more protein. The Basmati grain is distinctive in that it stretches more than double its dry length when cooked. Unlike other forms of rice, the grains only expand lengthwise when cooked, allowing them to maintain their characteristic length and slenderness. In India, a perfect kitchen never stops cooking with a new variety of grain. The dishes and experiments become even more flexible for individuals who enjoy rice in their everyday meals. It's the ideal rice for this all-around housewife. One packet is sufficient for cooking simple steamed rice, pulao, or fried rice. It has carefully chosen grains of constant quality. So, prepare to turn your ordinary meals into daily feasts with this rice.
