How to cook

• Rinse thoroughly until the water runs clear, then parboil for 10 minutes and drain before adding to your tomato-pepper base — the classic jollof method.
• Simmer covered on low heat until the rice has absorbed the stock and is tender, about 20-25 minutes.
• Let the pot rest, covered, for 5-10 minutes before serving for the best texture.

Storage

• Store in a cool, dry place in an airtight container, away from moisture and pests.
