Advantages: Great tasting, wholesome meal, great many ways to cook and healthy also.

Disadvantages: None as per me.

Tilda is becoming a popular brand amongst basmati rice. I* had ealier tried other known brands like Kohinoor but after buying a 1/2 kg pack of Tilda for a price of 2 pounds, I never bought any other basmati rice.

Basmati is an exquisite variety of rice because it's a quality that selects it's rice grains carefully and only the best grains are used.

The package is a blue shiny bag that has a zip on the top if you are buying a larger quantity like 5 kgs or 10 kgs. On the bag is written in white, "Tilda Pure Basmati". The bag is very well sealed to keep the freshness of the grains for a longer period of time.

The grains are long and white with very little fragrance. Usually basmati rice have a certain fragrance and aroma but Tilda doesn't really have that and the rice is much better than the other kinds and this is why I have come to prefer Tilda.

I usually measure rice by the cup while cooking. When I am cooking for 2 persons, I use 1/2 a cup Tilda basmati rice, wash it just a little (because these are fairly clean) and add double the amount of water (1 cup in this case). I cook the rice in an open pan till the water is all absorbed and turn the gas off. This is the simplest way of making these rice and can be combined with any other dish.


There are plenty of other ways and I will write the recipes later
in the recipe section.

Thanks for reading.

Summary: Best Basmati.
