Royal - Naturally Aged Authentic Long Grain Indian White Basmati Rice - 15 lbs

Waited a long time for this delivery.It tastes like any other good quality basmati rice but three times more expensive.will not buy this again.

Please be aware this is not real rice. Please check youtube. Rice can be made into a ball once cooked and it bounces once thrown onto the floor. This is not real rice

I like my rice, especially basmati rice. A little odd for a Norsky but hey, uff da. It was becoming scarce so I was thrilled to find it here. Basmati has a rich nutty flavor, cooks quick and evenly and it is low calorie and very filling. Prices have increased but still very reasonable for a staple. It keeps almost forever, but some mayfly type bugs may hatch out if you don't keep it cool and dry. This bag came with a small puncture, but no harm and no foul. I will enjoy this product and will buy more when I run out.

El producto es muy Caro

Es un arroz que no debe cocinarse en exceso. Si se baja del fuego estando húmedo solamente y se aparta, queda en su punto. Es delicioso.

A mi familia les a encantado este arroz, queda esponjadito y los granos no se pegan, muy rico!!!

As a frequent cooker of persian foods, its very important to me to have good basmati always on hand. Royal is reliable. Not too starchy, not brittle and crumbly, and most importantly, not over-absorptive. This works well (be sure to rinse it in cold water 4 or 5 times to get the starch out!) both for the persian style steamed rices as well as fried and then boiled or par-steamed north indian dishes. It even, with some care, will cook a somewhat stickier rice if you want. There are better basmatis, but they are offensively expensive. Its rice after all, so anything more extensive than $3/lb is absurd. You can get Royal at most grocery stores, which means that you will have consistent and reliable access to the same kind of basmati. If you buy from Amazon, don't pay more than $1.50 to 2/lb. In stores you can usually get 10lb bags for $13-18 dollars, or less. Of course lugging it home is a hug pain, which makes buying it with prime great.
