Setara Extra Long Basmati Rice 10kg

Description

Setara Extra Long Basmati Rice 10kg is bred for grain length — noticeably longer than standard basmati both before and after cooking, and it elongates further as it simmers. That extra length and the light, fluffy texture make it a favourite for biryani and pilau as well as everyday rice dishes.

How to cook

• Basic method: 1 cup rice to about 1¾ cups water, simmered 15-18 minutes.
• Rinse until the water runs clear, and soak for 20-30 minutes beforehand for maximum grain elongation.
• Let the pot rest 5 minutes off the heat before serving for fluffy, separated grains.

Storage

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

Frequently asked

Why soak the rice first?

Soaking lets the grains absorb water evenly, which helps them elongate fully and cook more uniformly.

Is 10kg a good size for regular cooking?

Yes — it's a practical bulk size for households that cook rice often or are catering for a group.
