1401 Basmati rice, whether white or creamy sella, is renowned for its long grains, exquisite aroma, and delicate flavor. Here's a description of each: White Basmati Rice (1401): Appearance: Long, slender grains with a pearly white appearance. Texture: When cooked, the grains remain separate and fluffy, with a slightly firm texture. Aroma: It emits a rich, floral fragrance that is characteristic of authentic Basmati rice. Taste: Delicate and nutty flavor profile, with a hint of floral sweetness. Cooking Characteristics: White Basmati rice cooks relatively quickly and maintains its shape well. It's suitable for a wide range of dishes, including pilafs, biryanis, and accompaniments to various curries. Creamy Sella Basmati Rice (1401): Appearance: The creamy sella variety undergoes a parboiling process before milling, giving it a slightly golden or creamy hue. Texture: The grains are longer and firmer than white Basmati rice, with a slightly chewy texture. Aroma: It retains the floral aroma of Basmati rice but may have a slightly deeper fragrance due to the parboiling process. Taste: The creamy sella rice has a richer flavor compared to white Basmati, with a subtle nuttiness and a hint of earthiness from the parboiling. Cooking Characteristics: Creamy sella Basmati rice requires slightly longer cooking times than white Basmati due to the parboiling process. However, it still maintains its distinct grains and is excellent for dishes where a firmer texture is desired, such as biryanis and pilafs. Both varieties of 1401 Basmati rice are highly prized for their quality, versatility, and ability to elevate a wide range of dishes with their unique aroma and flavor profiles.
