🍚 Premium Elvissmart Himalayan White Basmati Rice - Naturally Aged, Double Polished - 10 Pound Bag Review

This long grain basmati rice is tasty and easy to prepare. There are no cooking instructions on the packaging, which I think the company should add. First I washed the rice with a sieve so as not to lose all the grains in the husk. For one cup of dried rice, I added two and a half cups of water, which is a little more water than most recommendations. However, I find that I need to add more water due to my altitude. I use a rice cooker which is pretty much foolproof. When the rice is done, it…

I have cooked many rice dishes in my life: short grain, medium grain, long grain, white, brown and basmati rice. Each has its own purpose and taste. Basmati is a fragrant, nutty-tasting long grain rice grown in the Himalayas and Pakistan. "Bas" means "flavor" in Hindi and "mati" means "full", hence the word basmati - or "full of aroma". Basmati has the longest grain of all rice varieties. It has a distinctive nutty flavor and dense texture. Elvissmart Himalayan White Basmati Rice is an…

Let's start with a serious problem. The bag is thin. So thin (closer to cling film but weaker at the seams) that *both* 10 pound bags I ordered burst and about a quarter of the rice spilled out. I restored what hadn't flowed out of the rice and was a bit disappointed with the rice itself. i love rice I have over 10 types of rice, three of which are basmati. And that. Just not my favorite. Good. It turns out a very beautiful long grain. The texture is great and the taste of the rice itself is…

This really should have been a 5 star rating based on the superior quality of this white Himalayan basmati rice from Elvissmart alone. Unfortunately there was a problem when the rice first arrived. The thin plastic bag with rice was already torn open and the grains spilled out. I had to quickly find a container to pour rice grains into and collect any scattered grains. At least it was also packaged in a separate Revain box for shipping so I didn't lose too many grains. Apart from this negative…

All ages in my house loved this rice. The strangest thing about this huge packaging was that I couldn't find any cooking instructions either on the front or back of the packaging. I've obviously cooked rice before so it wasn't a deal breaker, but I've never seen a product like this with literally zero instructions. I kinda wanted you to double check the cook time. I feel like it's a great base for savory dishes like curry or beef stroganoff, but it's also a great base for a homemade Korean bowl

I have friends who own national farms that grow this rice. The name "Himalayan" is more of a marketing ploy, but rice is grown near them, close enough to be true. But few doubt that this is one of the best rice varieties in the world. Unfortunately, people living on a rice diet in developing countries could never afford this rice at the marginal price that retailers in our country are selling. I cannot forgive a ten pound sack of rice for thirty bucks, and I cannot help but demand it. count…

I have ordered 4 different types of Elwissmart Himalayan Rice at the same time and am reviewing them all together. When I ordered these I was looking forward to comparing different varieties. Growing up, I lived in the foothills of the Himalayas and that's where I learned to love rice. Here's what I ordered: > Elvissmart Extra Long White Rice Basmati – Premium Aged, 10 lbs, Healthy Grain > Elvissmart Premium White Basmati Premium White Basmati Extra Long-Gran Aromatic Rice Extra…
