The scent of a pot of Biryani that is boiling on a Sunday afternoon is something magic. It is a smell that drags everybody into the kitchen; it poses the same question: “Is it already ready? We understand that at Kuber Agro, biryani is not a meal but a highlight of celebrations and family customs. This is the reason that made us subject our flagship product, Oscar Extra Long Basmati Rice, to the ultimate test.
We referred to the challenge as the Grand Biryani Challenge. The point was simple: push our Royal Extra Long Basmati Rice to its very extremes to find out whether it is really the king of the grains, as it is supposed to be.
The first thing that you seek when cooking a Royal Biryani is the length. Nobody likes a mushy biryani. The aging process at Kuber Agro has taken years to get it right so that no grain of Oscar Basmati Rice can be mixed. We weighed the grains after cooking, and we obtained even greater results than we had anticipated during our challenge.
The Royal Extra Long Basmati Rice did not only grow but also remained solid, pluffy, and very long. The rice grains do not break easily when you are layering your meat or vegetables since they are already aged to perfection. It is that khila-khila (separate) quality that makes the difference between a good house cook and a master cook.
The quality of a biryani is its aroma. In this challenge, we did not apply any heavy artificial fragrances; we left the natural nuttiness of the rice to be shown. As the vapor came, the scent of the kitchen was filled with that traditional, rustic scent that only natural Basmati can give off.
We have discovered that a lot of people are afraid that their rice will become sticky. Our tip? Don’t over-stir! Due to the high quality of our grains, they are good carriers of the flavors of the spices and saffron without losing their structure. It does not matter whether you are preparing a Hyderabadi Dum Biryani or a delicate Lucknowi Pulao; it is the rice that takes all the flavor of the dish, yet it is the main actor of the play.
We are extremely proud of being the parent company of Oscar Basmati Rice. In Kuber Agro, we do not merely process rice; we experience it. We know how much you love to cook, and we know that your food ought to be as hard-working as you are.
The Grand Biryani Challenge made one thing clear, and that is that with the right foundation, such as our Royal Extra Long Basmati Rice, you are already halfway to a perfect meal. It is dependable, it is pretty to gaze at, and it also tastes like home.
