Basmati Paddy Seeds

Appearance (Plant): As seen in the image, Basmati paddy plants grow in flooded fields. The individual grains develop on slender, drooping panicles (stalks) that emerge from the main plant. The leaves are typically long and slender, characteristic of rice plants.
Grain Appearance: Basmati grains are naturally long and slender, even before milling. When cooked, they elongate further and become light, fluffy, and separate, rather than sticky.
Aroma & Flavor: This is what truly sets Basmati apart. It possesses a distinctive, natural nutty and floral aroma and a sweet, delicate flavor. This aroma comes from a chemical compound called 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline.

Basmati rice is traditionally cultivated in the foothills of the Himalayas in India and Pakistan, where specific climatic conditions and soil types contribute to its unique qualities.
It requires ample water, hence the flooded paddy fields, and a long growing season.
