Kalajeera - Raw – sotestore

Kalajeera, also known as the ‘Prince of Rice’ is an aromatic variety. Originating from Orissa, this lowland scented rice variety looks like coriander seeds. It is believed to increase hemoglobin levels and the body metabolism. This fragrant grain has antispasmodic, stomachic, carminative, antibacterial, astringent and sedative properties. Ancient text explains that Kalajeera improves memory and controls diabetes.

It is recommended to store rice in a cool, dry area. If it needs to be preserved for a long period, say over a month or more, dried neem leaves can be added into the pack/box. It is better to avoid storing in humid areas as this would cause pests to form faster. Since our heritage rice is purely organic, the husk is sweeter, which in turn could invite pests if not stored as suggested above.

Raw Rice

Soak the Kalajeera Raw Rice for 2-3 hours before cooking. Cook it in the ratio of 1:4 (For 1 cup rice, add 4 cups water). Please adjust the water ratio according to your preference.
