What it is

Basmati is the long, slender rice of North India and Pakistan, grown in the foothills of the Himalayas. The grains lengthen as they cook and stay separate, which is why it is the rice for pulao and most biryanis outside Tamil Nadu.

Akash basmati is a good everyday bag: long grains, a light fragrance and a fluffy finish. The 5 kg size covers weekday jeera rice and a weekend biryani. Choosing between rices? Basmati for pulao and North Indian biryani; seeraga samba for Dindigul and Ambur biryani; sona masoori for daily sambar rice and curd rice.

Tip: Soak for 20 to 30 minutes and cook with the lid off for the first few minutes. The grains stay longer and do not stick.

Goes well with: Shan Garam Masala, Shan Fried Onion, Aachi Pilau Biryani Masala
