Parmal Golden Sella Rice is a type of non-Basmati rice grown in various regions of India, particularly in states like Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, and Punjab. It belongs to the “Parmal” series of rice varieties. The term “Golden Sella” indicates that the rice has undergone a parboiling process during its preparation. This process involves partially cooking the rice in its husk before milling, which helps retain some of the nutrients from the outer layers of the grain and gives the rice a golden or yellowish color. “Sella” also refers to the rice’s firm and separate texture when cooked. Parmal Golden Sella Rice is characterized by its long and slender grains, with an average length ranging from 6.5 mm to 7.0 mm or longer.
While Parmal Golden Sella Rice may not have the strong natural fragrance of aromatic Basmati rice, it offers a mild and pleasant scent. It typically has a firm and slightly sticky texture when cooked, with grains that retain moisture well, making it ideal for a variety of rice-based dishes. The parboiling process generally reduces the cooking time compared to regular white rice, taking approximately 15-20 minutes to cook, depending on the cooking method used.
