Brown basmati rice is a long-grain whole-grain rice with a light, fluffy texture and a mild nutty aroma. The grains stay separate when cooked, so it works in curry, stir-fry, pilaf, salad and dessert recipes. It keeps the bran layer that white basmati loses, so it cooks slower and tastes earthier. Buyers rate it well for aroma and texture; the main trade-offs are the longer cooking time and a firmer chew than white rice.
