PARBOILED RICE
Premium long-grain parboiled rice processed through a unique hydrothermal treatment where paddy rice is soaked, steamed, and dried before milling. This process drives nutrients from the bran into the endosperm, resulting in firmer, less sticky grains that cook fluffy and separate. The golden-amber grains retain more nutrients than regular white rice while offering a subtle nutty flavor. Ideal for jollof rice, fried rice, and everyday staple meals.
