- Is this the same as India Gate Dubar or Feast Rozzana?
- No. Classic sits between them: longer aged grains and more aroma than Feast Rozzana, but Dubar is the premium aged line with a stronger fragrance.
- How should I cook it for separate grains?
- Rinse until the water runs clear, soak for about 20 to 30 minutes, then cook in plenty of water and drain. Let it rest covered before fluffing with a fork.
- Is it good for biryani?
- Yes. The long grains hold their shape and stay separate, which is what layered biryani needs. Soak them first and parboil only partway.
- How should I store a large bag?
- Move it to an airtight container once opened and keep it cool and dry. Basmati keeps for months this way and holds its aroma better.
- Does it need soaking?
- It is not required, but soaking for 20 to 30 minutes gives longer, more separate grains and shortens cooking time.
