## Description

Product Description The finest quality Basmati can only be sourced from the heart of the best and most fertile land of Punjab, Pakistan. Many knowledgeable caterers and consumers already know that no other Basmati can compare with the delicate aroma, delicious flavour and delightful tenderness of authentic Pakistani Basmati. Traditional harvesting, deft handling and delicate processing make White Pearl Basmati so different. Its pure white grains absorb more water during cooking which results in even longer fluffy, deliciously fine and separate grains.

Review: Basmati rice great choice - I would always buy this rice but it is becoming difficult to get hold of not sure why. It has a nice taste.
Review: Fluffiest rice I've ever had - There's no comparison with this rice to any other rice I've ever bought from the supermarket. The grains are nice and long, the rice is separated, really fluffy and light. Please note the cooking instructions, as it says to soak in cold water for 15 mins before cooking (which I've never done with rice before). Will definitely be re-ordering.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: is it gluten free ?**
A: Rice is generally gluten-free and there is nothing to suggest on the package that it has been mixed or processed with other products that contain gluten

**Q: Better than Tilda?**
A: I have not used Tilda as it so expensive. However, for me this rice had long grains which separated easily after cooking which is what I look for in a basmati rice.

**Q: When will you be able to make your first delivery?**
A: See delivery details

**Q: Hi can someone tell me what the expire date or best before date for the rice? Thank you**
A: There is usually an expiry date printed on the packet. Having said that, if you keep your rice in dry conditions away from any moisture, white rice can have up to 2yrs shelf life. If you can't remember how long you've had it, just check for mould, damp or bugs before use
