This unique type of grain is known for its taste, aroma and delicate structure. Like champagne, pure basmati rice can only be grown and harvested in one place on earth: the foothills of the Himalayas. The panicles are checked for purity, because only the pure Basmati has these unique attributes. Tilda makes no compromises when it comes to purity, taste, quality or nutrition. The characteristic taste of this quality rice is considered aromatic, deliciously tender and wonderfully combinable with a variety of dishes - no matter whether hot, cold, sweet or savory. Basmati is known as a super grain for a reason. The naturally sun-drenched, ripened grains stand for exceptional taste. Broken kernels that release starch and make the rice lumpy are removed to ensure a light texture. The distinctive aroma is further enhanced by the fact that the Tilda Basmati rice has months to age before grinding. This gives it a deeper, richer and nuttier taste. This also ensures that when the rice is cooked, small pores are opened in the surface of the grain, which allow it to absorb the flavors of the meal.
