Frequently Asked Questions
Is soaking really necessary for basmati?
It is not mandatory, but soaking gives longer, softer grains and shortens cooking time. Even 15 minutes helps.
Can I use this rice for Indo-Chinese fried rice?
Yes. Cook it a little firm, spread it out to cool, and ideally chill it before stir frying with vegetables and soy sauce.
How do I add fragrance to plain rice?
Add a bay leaf, a couple of green cardamom pods or a small piece of cinnamon to the cooking water.
