Rice, Basmati Brown (Organic) - 500g
Basmati, meaning 'the fragrant one' in Sanskrit is known in India as the 'queen of rice'. Traditionally grown in the foothills of the Himalayas, this aromatic rice has a delicious light nutty flavour. Its grains are longer than plain rice and lengthen further during the cooking process. When cooked, basmati rice remains dry and fluffy, making a nice bed for curries and sauces.
Ingredients: Brown Basmati Rice
Origin: Product of India, packed in New Zealand
Certification: BioGro Organic
How Interesting...
- Even though brown rice takes a bit longer to cook than white rice, it's well worth the wait: unrefined grains retain more vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Plus, they are high in fibre, which is important for a heart-healthy diet. Like other whole grains, brown rice has been minimally processed, in this case just enough to sort and remove the inedible outer husk, leaving the nutritious outer bran layer intact.
