Bring the taste of faraway countries home with our Basmati rice. In India and Pakistan, this rice variety has long been an integral part of the cuisine. Basmati means "fragrance" in Hindi. It is a particularly aromatic, long-grain rice that originally comes from Afghanistan. Basmati rice has a nutty, earthy flavour with a flowery fragrance and is not sticky. It is considered the most noble type of rice.

How to cook organic Basmati rice?

Our two basmati varieties, brown and white, have passed the KoRo taste test. We have selected and tasted the best rice for you. It's not only the taste that convinces us, but also the handling. The rice can be cooked super quickly and easily in just 15 minutes and has an airy, fluffy consistency. White basmati rice has a slightly softer consistency than brown basmati rice. The difference lies in the processing. The white rice is milled and thus freed from its silver skin.

Versatile Basmati rice from India

The fragrant rice can be used sweet or savoury, as a side dish or in the main role - basmati rice is always an excellent choice and a great alternative to conventional rice. KoRo tip: For an extra kick of flavour, you can add spices to the cooking water. This gives the rice a great flavour of its own, for example with a cardamom pod or our turmeric. With a little cinnamon, you can also make delicious rice pudding. Serve it with hot curries and daals or simply with fresh vegetable and tofu!

In total there are more than 100,000 different types of rice worldwide; it is therefore no wonder that rice is grown in more than 100 countries on all continents - except Antarctica. China and India lead the global production, but a lot of rice is also grown in other Asian countries and in South and North America, as well as in Europe. Depending on the variety, it takes between three and eight months until rice is ready to be harvested. After corn, rice is the world's most cultivated food.

Production

Hier wächst Dein Reis

Ob für Sushi, Risotto oder als leckerer Milchreis: Der Reis aus Deiner Bestellung ist sonnenverwöhnt und stammt von den Feldern Italiens.

Reis hat besonders viel Durst

Er beginnt seine Reise auf gefluteten Feldern. Zwar werden nicht alle Reissorten unter Wasser angebaut – aber Unkraut und Schädlinge haben nicht so viel Lust auf nasse Wurzeln und Füße. So steigt der Ertrag und die Reisbauern können mehr Reis für Dein nächstes Mittagessen ernten.

Reis ist das zweitwichtigste Lebensmittel

Fast 800 Millionen Tonnen Reis werden jedes Jahr geerntet – und es werden jährlich mehr. Weltweit liegt der Reis damit zwar hinter Mais (1,1 Mrd.), aber deutlich vor Kartoffeln (370 Mio.) und Weizen (730 Mio.).

Wir passen genau auf, was wir Dir schicken

Bevor der Reis seinen Weg zu Dir findet, wird natürlich erst die Qualität gecheckt. Alles, was nicht passt, wird aussortiert.

Nur poliert und gewaschen in die Verpackung

In diesen Maschinen wird der Reis für seine Reise auf deinen Teller vorbereitet. Hier werden die Reiskörner gewaschen und bekommen eine Wasser-Politur. So bleibt der natürliche Geschmack erhalten.

Essen zu testen macht (fast) immer Spaß

Ganz egal welchen Reis Du bei uns bestellst – bei KoRo bekommst du nur die leckersten Sorten. Nur wer unser Tasting übersteht, schafft es in unser Sortiment. Die Schlechten haben wir schon vorher für Dich raus gesucht.
