Shankar Red Raw Rice 2Kg
Description
Aroma: Earthy, Robust & Wholesome
Texture: Firm, Bold & Nutrient-Dense
Shankar Red Raw Rice is a premium, unpolished long-grain rice variety known for its distinctive reddish-purple bran and superior nutritional profile. Sourced from traditional farming regions, this rice retains its natural outer layer, which is rich in fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Its deep, nutty flavors and firm bite make it a favourite for health-conscious households seeking an authentic, rustic dining experience that doesn't compromise on taste.
-
The Power Soak: To achieve the perfect texture, rinse the rice thoroughly and soak for at least 45–60 minutes before cooking. Because red rice is less processed than white rice, this soaking period is essential to soften the outer bran, ensuring the grains cook through while maintaining their signature "snap" and separate structure.
-
Culinary Versatility: Its robust flavour stands up perfectly to spicy South Indian curries, hearty stews, and coconut-based gravies. It is an ideal choice for traditional dishes like Kerala-style meals, Kanji, or as a colourful, textured base for Mediterranean-style rice bowls and stir-fried.
-
Premium Quality: Shankar ensures that every pack contains high-purity grains with minimal breakage. This rice is naturally Gluten-Free, High in Fiber, and has a lower glycaemic index compared to polished white rice, making it an excellent energy source for those managing a balanced diet.
-
Authentic Heritage: Red rice has been a staple of traditional Ayurvedic diets for centuries, prized for its strengthening properties. Shankar preserves this heritage by sourcing grains that are grown using time-honoured agricultural practices, bringing the rustic goodness of the field directly to your table.
-
Storage & Care: Due to the natural oils found in the red bran, it is best to store this rice in a cool, dark, and dry place. Once the bag is opened, transferring the grains to an airtight glass or plastic container will help preserve its nutritional value and prevent the rice from absorbing kitchen humidity.
