Non - Basmati Rice

Rice is a staple food for over half of the world’s population, and while Basmati Rice often steals the spotlight with its long grains and aromatic fragrance, the vast universe of Non-Basmati Rice varieties deserves just as much attention. Non-Basmati Rice, encompassing a wide range of rice types, offers diverse flavors, textures, and nutritional benefits that cater to different culinary traditions and preferences across the globe. Non-Basmati Rice is a broad category that includes all rice varieties that do not fall under the Basmati classification. Unlike Basmati Rice, which is known for its distinct aroma and long, slender grains, Non-Basmati Rice varieties come in various shapes and sizes—short, medium, and long grains. These rice types are integral to numerous cuisines, providing unique characteristics that enhance a multitude of dishes.

Description

The cooking methods for Non-Basmati Rice vary depending on the type and the dish being prepared. Here are some general tips for cooking different varieties:

Sona Masoori and Jasmine Rice: Rinse the rice thoroughly before cooking to remove excess starch. Use a rice cooker or stovetop method with a 1:2 rice-to-water ratio for fluffy grains.

Arborio Rice: For risotto, gradually add broth to the rice while stirring continuously to release starch and achieve a creamy consistency.

Calrose Rice: Rinse and soak the rice for 20-30 minutes before cooking. Use a 1:1.25 rice-to-water ratio for a slightly sticky texture.

Red Rice: Soak the rice for a few hours before cooking to reduce cooking time. Use a 1:2.5 rice-to-water ratio and simmer until tender.
