Chak Hao Poireiton - Raw

Chak Hao Poireiton  is a black rice from Manipur. The literal meaning of Chak Hao is ‘delicious rice’ (Chak – rice; Hao-delicious). This sticky textured rice is rich in fibre and it usually turns deep purple when cooked due to its anthocuanin content. With powerful nutrition boosting antioxidants, this sticky rice, contains dietary fiber and anti-inflammatory properties. One serving of black rice offers a high amount of flavanoid phytonutrients, mineral content such as iron and copper and. It is a good source of plant-based protein.

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.

Soak the Chak Hao Poireiton raw rice for 8 hours before cooking. Cook it in the ratio of 1:5 (For 1 cup rice, add 5 cups water). Please adjust the water ratio according to your preference.
