About this item

Product details

Mahatma Basmati Imported Indian Fragrant Rice is grown in the foothills of the Himalayas where it is washed by the snow-capped mountains. It is perfect for dishes like Pulau or Biryani. It is also enjoyed plain. Basmati is known as a fragrant or aromatic rice due to the wonderful aroma it emits while cooking and its delicious flavor when during mealtimes. Aging the rice intensifies the aroma and taste even more. Each grain cooks up into a wonderfully long, slender and fluffy grain. Each order includes one 5-pound (80-ounce) bag. Mahatma is part of Riviana Foods, Inc. and is the No. 1 selling rice brand in the United States. For 93 years, Riviana Foods, Inc. has stood behind this rice because of its consistently high quality.

Instructions

Traditional Cooking Method in Excess Water: In a large pot, bring 8 cups of water to a boil. Measure 1 to 2 cups of Mahatma Rice and add to boiling water. Boil uncovered for 12 minutes. Drain in a strainer and rinse with hot water. Cooking Directions on the Stove: 1. In a saucepan, bring water to a boil (Cooking Measurement Chart: 4 Servings (3/4 Cup Cooked): 1 cup rice; 1-3/4 cups water; 3 cups yield. 8 Servings (3/4 Cup Cooked): 2 cups rice; 3-1/2 cups water; 6 cups yield. 12 Servings (3/4 Cup Cooked): 3 cups rice; 5-1/4 cups water; 9 cups yield). 2. Stir in rice (Add 1 tbsp butter and 1 tsp salt per cup of uncooked rice, if desired). 3. Cover. Reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes or until all water is absorbed. Cooking Directions in the Microwave (It is recommended that only 1 cup rice be prepared in the microwave at a time. Microwave ovens vary. Cooking times are approximate): 1. In a 2 quart microwave-safe dish combine 2 cups water and 1 cup rice (Add 1 tbsp butter and 1 tsp salt per cup of uncooked rice, if desired). 2. Cover and microwave on high for 5 minutes. Reduce setting to 50% power, microwave for 15 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes. For drier rice, use 1/4 cup less water. For moister rice, use 1/4 cup more water.

Stir in chopped dried fruit and toasted nuts. When preparing - Saute garlic, add rice and cook in chicken broth. Add whole cloves and a stick of cinnamon while cooking rice. For perfect pilafs, saute rice in oil to firm and toast the starchy exterior.

Good staple to keep in your pantry

This rice cooks up really well, has a lot of flavor to it and when rinsed off well, doesn’t become sticky. It’s a great rice to always keep in your pantry! Have no complaints with it
