Understanding Steam Rice & Extra Long Grains
"Steam Rice" often refers to rice (typically Basmati) that has undergone a specific parboiling process involving steam before milling. This process helps to retain nutrients, makes the grains firmer, and results in cooked rice that is less sticky and more separate. "Extra Long Grain" signifies a superior quality with grains that elongate significantly upon cooking.

• Exceptionally Long & Slender Grains: Kaalar selects grains known for their impressive length, which further elongates when cooked, providing an elegant presentation.
• Fluffy & Non-Sticky Texture: The steaming process contributes to grains that cook up light, separate, and perfectly fluffy – ideal for dishes where individual grains are desired.
• Captivating Natural Aroma: Possesses a delicate yet distinct aroma, characteristic of high-quality long-grain rice (often Basmati, if applicable), that enhances the overall meal experience.
• Premium Quality for Special Dishes: The preferred choice for making exquisite Biryanis, rich Pulaos, and other celebratory rice preparations.
• Versatile for Everyday Meals: While excellent for special dishes, it also makes a wonderful accompaniment to everyday curries, dals, and sabzis, elevating simple meals.
• Value 5kg Pack: This large pack is ideal for families, regular rice consumers, or for those who love to entertain, offering excellent value.

Cooking Instructions for Kaalar Extra Long Grain Steam Rice
(General instructions; always refer to the specific pack for Kaalar's recommendations)

1. Rinse 1 cup of Kaalar Extra Long Grain Steam Rice thoroughly in cold water until the water runs relatively clear.
2. Soak the rice in water for at least 30 minutes (this helps the grains elongate further and cook evenly).
3. For an open pot method: Use approximately 1.5 to 2 cups of water for every 1 cup of rice. Bring water to a boil, add the soaked and drained rice, and a pinch of salt if desired. Cook uncovered on medium heat until the water is absorbed (about 10-15 minutes for parboiled/steam rice).
4. For a closed pot/rice cooker: Follow the manufacturer's instructions, generally using a water-to-rice ratio of around 1.5:1 to 1.75:1 for steam/parboiled rice.
5. Once cooked, let the rice stand covered for 5-10 minutes before fluffing gently with a fork. Do not stir vigorously.
