About the Product: The King of Rices - Swad Basmati

Basmati Rice is widely recognized as the most refined rice in the world. Its name, which means "fragrant" in Hindi, perfectly captures its character – it releases an extraordinary, pleasant scent during cooking due to its natural volatile oils. Swad is a reputable supplier focused on authentic flavors, offering carefully selected, long grains. Once cooked, they remain perfectly fluffy, separate, and unsticky, which is crucial for achieving the correct texture of traditional Indian dishes.

The secret to Basmati's fluffiness is its low amylopectin starch content. Unlike sticky rice, these grains do not clump together, and their slender form elongates two- or even three-fold during cooking. Due to these characteristics, Swad Basmati Rice is indispensable as:

• The base for curry dishes: It perfectly absorbs rich sauces without turning mushy.
• An ingredient for Pilaf and Biryani: This is the absolute mandatory rice for these aromatic, layered dishes.
• A universal side dish: It pairs wonderfully with European, Mediterranean, and Middle Eastern cuisines, adding elegance and lightness.

Swad Basmati Rice is also an excellent choice for health-conscious individuals. It features a very low fat content and practically zero salt, while providing a solid serving of protein (7.0 g/100 g) and being a good source of carbohydrates. It is easily digestible and healthy. By choosing this rice, you are embracing the culinary tradition of the Indian subcontinent, ensuring an aromatic, fluffy, and consistently successful addition to every meal.
