Why Choose 1121 Steam Rice?
Steam-Processed Grains
Light steaming before milling locks in nutrients while preserving the natural Basmati aroma and elongation.
Superior Cooking Yield
Steam Basmati gives 15-20% more volume after cooking compared to raw white rice — better value per kg.
Extended Shelf Life
The steaming process gelatinizes the starch surface, making grains more resistant to insect damage and humidity.
Consistent Golden Hue
Characteristic light golden color signals the steam treatment — highly valued in Middle Eastern and African markets.
