Rice & Flours

Jasmine rice is a fragrant long-grain rice that is native to Thailand and commonly used in Southeast Asian cuisine. It is known for its delicate aroma, slightly sweet flavor, and tender texture when cooked.

To cook jasmine rice, first, rinse the rice thoroughly in cold water to remove any excess starch. Then, place the rice in a pot with the appropriate amount of water (typically 1.5 to 2 cups of water for every 1 cup of rice). Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid. Let the rice simmer for about 18-20 minutes, or until all the water is absorbed and the rice is tender.

Once the rice is cooked, remove it from the heat and let it sit covered for 5-10 minutes. This will allow the rice to absorb any remaining moisture and fluff up. Before serving, fluff the rice with a fork to separate the grains.

Jasmine rice can be served as a side dish with a variety of savory dishes, such as curries, stir-fries, or grilled meats. It can also be used in sweet dishes like rice pudding or mango sticky rice. Its delicate flavor and fragrance make it a popular choice for many Asian-inspired dishes.

Boro rice is a type of rice that is grown during the winter season in India and Bangladesh, specifically in the northeastern region. It is known for its long grain and aromatic qualities and is often used in making biryani and other rice dishes.

The cultivation of Boro rice requires a specific set of conditions, including a minimum temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and an adequate water supply. It is typically planted in November or December and harvested in April or May.

Boro rice is an important crop for farmers in the northeastern region of India, as it provides a source of income during the winter season when other crops cannot be grown. However, the cultivation of Boro rice requires a significant amount of water, which can put a strain on the region's already limited water resources.
