TAJ Gourmet Brown Basmati Rice, Naturally Aged, 10-Pounds

I love this rice, but not the packaging. Needs to be packaged in a reclosable container. The brown basmati has great flavor and a nice tooth. I always soak in low salt chicken broth for 30 min in the rice cooker before starting it. Water also works fine if you like it vegan.However, I nearly gave it just 4 stars due to packaging.

Good value to buy this size. We eat lots of brown basmati rice and this fits the bill.

Ordered a few of these so far-- and always happy with the quality and taste!

Opened bag. Horrible petroleum smell. Steamed rice and still smelled the same. Not recommended.

The 10-pound pack provides a lot of rice for cooking delicious meals. The rice has a delicious taste and offers great nutritional value. It's a perfect choice for those seeking a tasty and wholesome addition to their meals. Highly recommended for its delectable flavor and health benefits.

Good quality product

I was never a brown rice person—I loved white rice! I wanted to eat more fiber, so I bought this rice. It’s delicious! I’ve tried brown rice numerous times before but the smell and taste was always a turnoff.My family goes through this quickly—I’ve bought three 25-pound bags!—and it has been fresh each time. The last couple of times I bought rice from Kroger, it came with rice weevils (so gross). I put this rice in an airtight container and have not had any issue like that.I am usually too impatient to soak it first, but I give it a good rinse and then put it in my rice cooker. It smells amazing while it’s cooking, and it’s light and fluffy when it’s done. It doesn’t clump together or get mushy. This is the only rice I buy anymore!

I read that basmati rice from California, Pakistan or India has less heavy metals (arsenic) thanother types of rice, so I decided to ditch my brown, jasmine and long-grain rice and make the switch tobasmati. After reading reviews, prices and package information I bought TAJ which has 9.8 mg protein and 8% calcium per serving. Soaked it about 30 minutes, drained it and cooked one cup rice with 2 cups water.It came out PERFECTLY!! a big pan of light, fluffy, beautiful rice with a wonderful taste and texture. Move out all you other types of rice, my cupboard space has a big jar of Taj and no room for lesser stuff. Love it! No, I was not paid or given free product or anything else to write this review. I am blown away by the difference in this wonderful rice and if you are thinking of trying it, don't hesitate!
