Dunar - Elonga Creamy Sella Parboiled Basmati Rice, 10 Pound

Love, love, love this rice. Cooks well, tastes good. A little overpriced, but basmati rice is expensive these days. My family loves it when cooked as coconut rice, just wash rice, when water is clear pour a can of coconut milk and same amount of water to the pot of rice, add a tablespoon of oil and salt to taste, allow to cook on medium heat, when all the liquid is absorbed eat with sauce, meat and veggies of choice. I usually eat it with tomato stew with lamb chops(sometimes fish) and string beans. Buy it and enjoy.

This is the best basmati rice I have found. The grains are very long, with a firm but creamy texture. The taste and nutty aroma is stronger than other basmati brands I have tried. This rice seems to need just a touch less water than most basmati rice does.

I love this rice, I cook it in a rice cooker with some beef or chicken base to flavor it. Great product.

EDIT: These USED to be the best basmati rice, but since a few months into the pandemic started there is a horrible, overwhelming, STINK to it. I'm not sure if the issue is the supply, wherever this rice comes from, storage or what, but what made this rice fantastic was its aroma. Now it's the reason you should buy any other brand. I've tried a bag every 4 months or so, last one arriving in Aug 2021, and it still smell horrible. ----Original, pre-pandemic review: If you are making Persian rice, this is the one to go with. The scent, length, taste... it's phenomenal. I've had 3 of these bags so far, not one bug. Not sure where the ones in the negative reviews came from. Glad they didn't stop me buying this.

I like the size of the rice and quality.

This is one of the good basmati rice I’ve eaten, just make sure you rinse the rice before cooking, run under water until it runs clear add a teaspoon of oil or butter, then add enough water to cover the rice maybe about half an inch above rice level, steam on medium heat and once it absorbs the water it should be done. Serve with your favorite stew or sauce and vegetables. Yum. I make coconut rice with it with fried plantains.

Parboiled is not very tasty. I found it a problematic rice choice.

I have subscribed to this rice and so glad I did. It is very good and one bag lasts us about 3 months. (There are two of us, but I am gluten free so we eat a lot of rice.) I also use this rice to make white rice flour by grinding it in our coffee grinder. This rice apparently contains less arsenic than many other varieties and is a fairly long grain so we enjoy it a lot more than the standard white rice.
