Basmati rice 1000g - VIVIO

Of all the rice varieties on the market, white rice is the most popular. Among other things, individual types are differentiated based on the length of their grains. On store shelves, we find short-grain rice (pearl, most commonly used for sushi), medium-grain rice (arborio, carnaroli, vialone, loto), and long-grain rice (jasmine and basmati). Another classification is based on the degree of purification and processing of the grains. Here, we distinguish between brown rice, which is free of chaff and germ but has a dark hull; white rice (free of chaff, germ, and hull); and parabolic rice (highly purified and additionally heat-treated, giving it its characteristic yellow color). Basmati rice belongs to the long-grain rice group. Its grains are very long and needle-like, and when cooked, they actually increase in size, becoming very tender and fluffy. Plain white jasmine rice has slightly shorter and rounder grains. The two types also differ slightly in their energy value. The Basmati variety also has a significantly lower glycemic index (IG 58) than plain white rice (IG 109).
Rice primarily provides our body with carbohydrates. It contains a small amount of protein (approximately 6.8 g) and a negligible amount of fat. It is also characterized by a high starch content. Its two main ingredients—amylose and amylopectin—influence the structure of the rice after cooking. Basmati rice contains higher amounts of amylose, which prevents the grains from sticking together after cooking.
The fiber contained in rice stimulates intestinal peristalsis and has a positive effect on the digestive system. White basmati rice is easily digestible, making it an important component of the diet of people suffering from digestive system disorders. According to scientists, white rice can also complement the treatment of kidney disease and arterial hypertension (due to its low sodium content).

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
White basmati rice must be prepared properly before consumption. The first step is to soak the beans in water. This should take between half an hour and even two hours. This allows the grains to absorb some water and cook evenly. When cooking, it is important to maintain the correct proportions. For one serving of rice, use one and a half servings of water. Cook the rice in salted water, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer covered for about 10 minutes. During this time, do not remove the lid. Then turn off the heat, wait about 5 minutes and the rice is ready to eat. This processing makes the grains crumbly, soft and aromatic.
White basmati rice has a wide range of culinary uses. It's a great ingredient in both sweet and dry dishes. You'll use it to create a delicious breakfast, lunch, and dinner. In Asian cuisine, basmati rice is used to prepare poultry, seafood, and fish dishes. Try the following recipes with basmati rice and enjoy the incredible fineness of its grains.
