Trivia

[Trivia] 'Basmati' means 'Queen of Fragrance' in Hindi. The longer it is aged (aging), the more moisture it loses, resulting in longer, fluffier grains sold at premium prices.

Eating tips & etiquette

[Unique Eating] Must never be 'sticky' like Japanese rice. The correct way is to boil it so fluffy and aerated that it falls apart completely when touched with a fork.

Allergen

None
