KALA JEERA RICE

Description:

Kala Jeera Rice, “the Prince of Rice”, is sometimes called baby basmati because of its fragrant aroma. Being such an aromatic rice, it is best just steamed by itself with a pinch of salt and butter or oil. Projecting a slightly sticky texture Kala Jeera Rice must be rinsed well with cold running water. A short cook time of 10 to 15 minutes and using only a tiny bit more water than rice in a small-bottomed pan will help keep the kernels from over inflating.  The ratio of 1 1/4 water to 1 rice works well. The short cook time makes it a time saving ingredient for chefs!
