Grown in the Mandakini basin at around 2600 ft, this red rice retains part of its natural bran layer, giving it its distinct color. Unlike fully polished white rice, only the outermost husk and outer hard bran is removed, leaving behind a lighter bran that makes it easier to cook while still preserving its character. The result is a more filling rice that digests slower and keeps you satisfied with smaller portions.

What to Expect

Texture: Firm, slightly chewy, non-sticky
Taste: Earthy, nutty, fuller than white rice
Cooking: Needs more water, takes longer
Energy/Feel: More filling, eat less

Know your Cereals

Himalayan red rice is an ancient grain of Uttarakhand Himalayas grown from time immemorial in this region. This pack of red rice is sourced from the middle Himalayan region of Mandakini river basin.

Benefits & Uses

1.Due to the presence of a component called anthocyanin, this rice is usually consumed either partially hulled or un-hulled. Red rice derives its eye-grabbing color from this component and has much more nutrient value as compared to other varieties of rice. What makes this variant of rice a healthy choice is the red husk, which is loaded with the goodness of nature.
1. Red rice has lots of fiber, due to the bran, and the flavor is significantly more powerful compared to hulled rice, tasting more nutty and full.
2. Its abundant fiber helps establish a healthy digestive system.
3. It is a rich source of potassium, manganese, iron, zinc, vitamins B1 and B2, together with other valuable minerals.
4. It also provides antioxidants that help defend cells from damage caused by potentially harmful molecules known as free radicals.
5. Authentic Himalayan red rice is quite rare so it comes at a high cost.
