Basmati Rice

Product Description

We are Distributing and Supplying an intensive variety of Basmati rice in Ludhiana, Punjab, India that is frequently used as the base for pilafs or paired with curries. Like all other types of rice, this long-grain Indian variety is available in both brown and white forms. Brown basmati rice retains its outer bran layer and typically contains more fiber and nutrients than white basmati rice, which has been milled and stripped of its bran. The U.S. Department of Agriculture recommends that at least half of the grains you eat daily should be whole grains like brown rice. Virtually Fat-Free A 1/4-cup serving of uncooked brown basmati rice contains approximately 150 calories, with about 15 calories -- or 10 percent of the total caloric content -- contributed by 1.5 grams of fat. None of this amount is saturated fat or trans fat, and brown basmati rice does not contain any cholesterol. White basmati rice, which has 160 calories per 1/4-cup serving, has had some of its natural oils removed during the milling process and does not have any detectable amount of fat.
