Cooking & Storage Instructions

• Preparation: Rinse the rice thoroughly 3–4 times. To achieve the best texture, soak for 30–60 minutes before cooking to allow the grains to soften uniformly.

• Cooking: Use a 3:1 or 4:1 water-to-rice ratio. For best results, pressure cook for 5–7 whistles or boil in an open pot until tender, then drain any excess water.

• Storage: Store in a cool, dry, and hygienic location, strictly away from direct sunlight, moisture, and high temperatures.

• Maintain Freshness: Once the pack is opened, transfer the rice to a clean airtight container immediately to protect the natural oils in the bran layer from oxidation.

• Keep the container securely sealed after every use to preserve the grain’s natural aroma and ensure a long-lasting shelf life.
