Rice
With the Motto: "In Quality, We Trust"
Rice is an important part of every Indian’s staple diet. Rice is the most important grain with regard to human nutrition and caloric intake. There are various types of Indian rice that are healthy and nutritious.
Boiled Rice
Parboiled rice is rice that has been boiled in the husk. Parboiling makes rice easier to process by hand, improves its nutritional profile, and changes its texture. Parboiling rice drives nutrients, especially thiamine, from the bran into the grain, so that parboiled white rice is nutritionally similar to brown rice. Because of this, parboiling was adopted by North American rice growers in the early 20th century. The process of parboiling itself, however, is more than two thousand years old and believed to have originated in the Persian Gulf.
Raw Rice
The raw rice breakfast comes to us from Asian medicine and is useful in regulating and supporting healing of the gut. It activates the cephalic phase of digestion which primes the digestive juices and results in more efficient digestion and absorption of nutrients. The effects of eating a raw rice breakfast make it a useful adjunct in the treatment of constipation, loose stools, flatulence (gas), bloating, “poor” or “weak” digestion, irritable bowel syndrome, ulcers, diverticulitis, and possibly Crohn’s disease, lupus, leaky gut, or other conditions where the digestive function is impaired.
Steam Rice
Steamed rice refers to rice that has been cooked either by steaming or boiling. Steamed rice includes any variant, including short, medium, and long grain rice. The secret is to steam the rice. Steam rice became one of beauty ingredient that has been used since the days of the ancestors.
