Your rating for Sugandha Raw Rice

How is Sugandha Raw Rice processed?

Raw processing gives the softest and most aromatic cook of any processing type, best when the dish is served straight away. At the mill the sequence is:

  1. Paddy is cleaned and dried to a stable milling moisture.
  2. The husk is removed in a rubber-roll sheller, leaving brown rice.
  3. The bran is polished off in stages to an even white surface.
  4. The rice is graded by length and sortex colour-sorted to remove discoloured grains.
  5. Every lot is tested for moisture, broken percentage and grain length before packing.

Questions buyers ask

Sugandha Raw Rice: common questions

Sugandha Raw Rice is milled straight from dried paddy with no soaking or heat treatment, so the grain keeps its full natural aroma and cooks soft and fluffy; Sugandha Steam Rice is steamed briefly in the husk before drying and milling, which firms the grain, cuts breakage and makes the cooked rice less sticky while keeping most of the raw aroma. In the pot, Sugandha Raw Rice gives the softest and most aromatic cook of any processing type, best when the dish is served straight away. It cooks in 12–15 minutes and keeps for 12 months, against 15–18 minutes and 18 months for Sugandha Steam Rice.

Rinse Sugandha Raw Rice two or three times, soak it for 20–30 minutes, then cook at about 1 : 1.75–2 rice to water for 12–15 minutes. The grain cooks to an average length of 14–15 mm, roughly 1.8× its raw length of 8.00 mm.

Sugandha Raw Rice keeps for 12 months from the packing date in cool, dry storage away from direct sunlight. Raw rice has the shortest shelf life of the processing types because it has had no heat treatment.

Raw rice

1121 Raw Basmati Rice

Raw 1121 shows the variety’s full aroma and its famous elongation — the grain more than doubles in length on cooking — so it is the first choice for premium retail packs and home cooks.

  • 8.35 mm
  • 1.0% broken

Pusa Raw Basmati Rice

Raw Pusa Basmati gives a genuine Basmati aroma and soft cook at a keener price than 1121, which makes it the everyday Basmati for many retail brands in India and abroad.

  • 7.45 mm
  • 2.0% broken

1509 Raw Basmati Rice

Raw 1509 is harvested earlier than 1121 and gives a long, slender, low-chalk grain, so it is often the sharper buy for retail packs when 1121 prices climb.

  • 8.30 mm
  • 2.0% broken
