What makes our Wholegrain Basmati special?

Flavour

Our organic Basmati Rice is of the variety Organic Super Kernel. It has a wonderfully light earthy taste. Our wholegrain Basmati has that extra note of rich wholegrain flavour.

Basmati is ideal for all savoury dishes, Indian curries and dals, and is perfect for rice pans. It fits as an amazing side dish for fish, meat and vegetable dishes. It’s a truly versatile rice!

Grain

Our Himalayan wholegrain Basmati is a long grain rice and complies with the stringent regulations for the Code of Practice on Basmati.

According to the purity requirement for original Basmati rice, the grains must have an average length of at least 6.5 mm, the foreign rice content must not exceed 7%, and the rice must have the typical Basmati flavour.

Most of our Basmati grains actually exceed these requirements. They are usually 7-8mm long.

Consistency

Our organic wholegrain Basmati is very loose and has a strong bite true to what you expect from the best Basmati.

Origin

Our "Organic Super Kernel" Basmati rice is organically grown at the foot of the Himalayas in Pakistan. The Himalaya region is considered the best growing area in the world for Basmati rice. In fact, according to the Code of Practice on Basmati, rice can only be sold as Basmati if it comes from certain areas in India and Pakistan.

Cultivation and Harvest

Because organic farming in Asia has not progressed very far, we have been searching for high-quality organic Basmati for a long time.

We have spared no expense and effort in finding the perfect organic Basmati for you. We are proud to say our Basmati has a strong white grain and has the earthy notes true to a genuine Basmati variety.

Nutrition Profile

Basmati rice, like any quality rice, contains many essential nutrients. Rice supplies our body with important complex carbohydrates, valuable protein, and is low in fat. It gives us energy and keeps you satiated. In addition, rice contains essential amino acids, vitamins, magnesium, zinc and potassium.

Wholegrain Basmati rice contains even more nutrients because its nutritious outer shell remains intact. The unpolished fine long grain contains a high proportion of nutrients like minerals, vitamins and unsaturated fatty acids.

Why organic? In contrast to conventional foods, organic foods must not contain any artificial colourings, sweeteners, flavour enhancers or stabilisers. This ensures your rice is completely pure.

The organic brown basmati rice I've just eaten was absolutely lovely and left a lovely aroma around my room. I purchased two 2.54kg bags for about £30 including postage and could've ordered many more as there's plenty of it.

Tasty rice

Lovely company to deal with. Easy ordering and speedy delivery. The rice is clean and consistent. It takes a bit longer to cook than plain white rice, but worth every minute (although it's good to go after a shorter cooking time than suggested; it's worth experimenting). You end up with a light brown, nutty, very tasty rice, with nicely separated grains. Works particularly well cold as well. Highly recommended.
