1401 Basmati Rice

A long, fragrant grain with a softer bite, loved for home-style biryani.

Pusa Basmati 1401 carries a stronger aroma than the extra-long varieties, with a long grain that cooks soft and separate.

It is a popular choice for households and retailers who prize fragrance, and it takes beautifully to both steaming and sella parboiling.
