Premium 1401 Steam Basmati Rice – Highly Aromatic & Extra Long (8.35mm) Experience the superior quality of our premium 1401 Steam Basmati Rice, an elite variety celebrated for its extra-long, slender grains and delicate natural fragrance. Featuring an outstanding average grain length of 8.35mm and a Kett index of 20–22, this rice undergoes a specialized steaming process that locks in native nutrients while prepping the grain for maximum elongation. 100% Sortex-cleaned with absolutely no foreign matter or black grains, it cooks up incredibly light, fluffy, and perfectly separate. Ideal for premium Biryanis, festive Pulaos, and gourmet Fried Rice, we export this top-tier grain customized entirely to your bulk volume and packaging specifications.
Sourced directly from the premier, nutrient-rich basmati fields of India, our 1401 Steam Basmati Rice represents a flawless combination of traditional agriculture and advanced milling craftsmanship. Globally renowned for its long, slender grains, delicate aroma, and superior post-cooking grain elongation, this variety is specially engineered to deliver a premium dining experience where tradition meets excellence in every single bite.
Unlike raw or heavily parboiled varieties, our 1401 Steam Basmati goes through a unique, gentle steaming process while still in its paddy form before milling.
Locked-In Nutrients: The steam passing through the paddy seals the native vitamins and minerals directly into the grain core, enhancing its overall nutritional value and digestibility.
Enhanced Elongation & Aroma: The hydrothermal heat treatment pre-activates the starch within the grain, allowing it to expand dramatically upon cooking while retaining its authentic, mouth-watering basmati fragrance.
Flawless, Non-Sticky Results: This specialized method ensures that when cooked, the grains stay light, beautifully separate, and completely non-sticky, maintaining a delicate, soft yet firm structure.
Boasting a commanding 8.35mm average grain length, this rice brings an immediate element of sophistication to any table. Its exceptional ability to deeply absorb complex seasonings, spices, and rich broths makes it a highly preferred choice for chefs, food enthusiasts, and catering professionals designing traditional favorites like royal Biryanis, vibrant vegetable Pulaos, high-end Fried Rice, and exotic pilafs.
