Annam Ponni Boiled Rice€19.99
Ponni boiled rice is a type of rice that is commonly consumed in the southern parts of India, particularly in Tamil Nadu. It is named after the Ponni river, which flows through the region where this variety of rice is grown.
Ponni boiled rice is characterized by its medium-sized grains, which are slightly flattened and have a white color. It is known for its unique flavor, aroma, and texture, and is popular for its ability to absorb flavors and spices well. It is also easy to digest and is a good source of carbohydrates and essential nutrients.
The rice is first parboiled before being polished, which helps retain the nutrients present in the rice. The parboiling process involves partially boiling the rice grains in the husk, which helps in retaining the essential vitamins and minerals. After parboiling, the rice is then dried, dehusked, and polished before it is sold in the market.
Ponni boiled rice is commonly used in dishes like biryani, pulao, and idli. It is also used to make plain boiled rice, which is usually served with curries and other side dishes.
