Our take on the Daawat Traditional Basmati Rice 3 kg

Daawat Traditional is an aged long-grain basmati sold in a 10 lb bag. It cooks up fluffy and separate with the nutty aroma basmati is known for, and it works on the stove, in a rice cooker or in the microwave. It is a plain white rice with no added seasoning, so it suits biryani, pilaf, curry sides and everyday meals. Against premium aged basmatis it is a solid middle choice: good grain length and aroma, though some cooks find the extra-long aged varieties cook up firmer and more separate.

Questions and answers

How should I cook Daawat Traditional Basmati?

Rinse until the water runs clear, soak for about 15 to 30 minutes, then cook with roughly 1.5 to 2 parts water to 1 part rice. It also works in a rice cooker or microwave following the same ratio.

Is this the same as Daawat Extra Long Grain?

No. Traditional is the standard aged basmati line; Extra Long Grain is selected for longer grains and often cooks firmer and more separate. Traditional is the more everyday option.

Is it gluten-free and vegan?

Yes. It is plain white basmati rice with no added ingredients, so it is gluten-free and suitable for vegetarian and vegan diets.

How many servings are in the 10 lb bag?

A 10 lb bag holds about 25 cups of dry rice, roughly 50 to 60 side-dish servings depending on portion size.

Does it need soaking?

Soaking is not required, but 15 to 30 minutes of soaking gives longer, more separate grains and shortens cooking time.

How should I store it after opening?

Keep it in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. The bag itself does not reseal, so transfer the rice once opened.
