What is Basmati rice?

Rice is perhaps the most significant and important evil culture in the world. Its origin and history are hidden, but it is known that for a long time rice was the main food for more than half of the inhabitants of the globe.


Indian Basmati rice is fragrant rice, but its flavor and taste differ from Thai Jasmine rice and other aromatic rice species. Some describe this fragrance as popcorn. Basmati grows in the northern Punjab region between India and Pakistan. This rice is more expensive than all kinds of rice in the world.


Basmati has a high content of amylase and a hard almost dry texture. Raw grains are long and thin, like southern long-grain rice, only slightly smaller. When preparing grains increase more than two and a half times. The best Indian Basmati rice has an age of at least a year, which will help increase the hardness of the texture and grains become longer when cooked.


Boiled grains envelop the stomach, protect and do not excite gastric secretion, so they are suitable for use in many diseases, due to the low content of fibers in it. It does not contain cholesterol and is easily absorbed by the body, so it is recommended for people suffering from cardiovascular diseases.
