SalaamBasmati Rice (Normal) 5KG

Not the best basmati but this represents great value for a basic basmati taste rice.. used a rice cooker so the cook time is about 8-10 mins to get a good quality dish with nice texture and good grain length.

Brilliant. It whips up a great basmati rice with the perfect amount of stickiness. It is about a medium grain length if you are interested in that.It takes around 15 or so minutes cooking time. Then I leave the lid on the saucepan to let it steam cook for a few more minutes. I always add Celtic salt to my rice because of the mineral content and taste. After I stir it becomes lovely and fluffy and has a mellow but nice basmati rice smell. I hope this helps.

"Decided to stock up on 10 kilos of this rice, and it was absolutely worth it! The flavor is incredible—every bite feels like a voyage to India. It's beautiful, aromatic, and cooks perfectly every time. Plus, it’s easy on the stomach in all the right ways. Highly recommend to anyone who loves authentic, flavorful rice!"

I have bought Salaam Basmati Rice in the 5KG pack many times, and overall, it’s a decent product, though it may not fully meet the expectations of those who are very particular about their rice.Pros:Affordable Price: The price for a 5KG bag is reasonable, especially for those who cook rice regularly and want a good quantity.Fluffy Texture: The rice does cook up nicely with a fluffy texture when done correctly. It doesn't clump, and the grains separate well if washed and cooked properly.Aromatic: This rice has a pleasant aroma, although not as strong as premium basmati brands. It still brings a nice fragrance to the kitchen while cooking.Cons:Grain Length: The grain length is a bit shorter than what you'd expect from higher-end basmati. For dishes like biryani or pilaf, it doesn’t provide that long, slender look associated with top-tier basmati.Needs Extra Rinsing: I found that this rice needed a few more rinses than usual to remove excess starch and get the best texture after cooking.Overall, if you're looking for a budget-friendly, everyday basmati, the Salaam Basmati Rice does the job. For special dishes or if you're very picky about grain length and aroma, you might want to explore other options.

Delicious rice. Texture is harder and has more a bite than other grains but it’s probably my favourite. Would buy again

Price was very cheap, but the rice is very decent quality. No complaints at all.

Salaam Rice is an exceptional choice for those who value quality and taste in their cooking. Known for its premium grains and consistent texture, Salaam Rice elevates any dish, whether it’s a simple meal or a gourmet creation.

Salaam Basmati Rice is average in quality. The grain length is decent, but not as long as premium brands. It has a mild aroma, which is pleasant but not very distinctive. Cook time is standard, though it can sometimes come out a bit sticky if not carefully monitored. The taste is good, but nothing exceptional. It cooks well enough, but you may need to be extra cautious to get the perfect fluffy texture. Overall, it's a reasonable choice for the price, but there are better options available.
