frequently asked questions (FAQ’s):

Q.- How does Indrayani Rice compare to Ambemohar Rice? 
Ans: Indrayani Rice is a hybrid variety developed from Ambemohar Rice, offering higher yield and better disease resistance. While both have a distinct sweet aroma, Indrayani has a medium grain and slightly stickier texture compared to Ambemohar's shorter grain. Indrayani's improved farming characteristics make it more accessible and consistent for cultivation.

Q.- Does Indrayani Rice require special cooking techniques? 
Ans: Indrayani Rice doesn't require special techniques, but it cooks best with a 1:2 rice-to-water ratio for a soft, slightly sticky texture. Rinsing the rice thoroughly before cooking helps remove excess starch. Letting it rest covered after cooking helps achieve the perfect fluffy consistency.

Q.- Can I use Indrayani Rice for making non-Indian dishes? 
Ans: Yes, Indrayani Rice can be used for non-Indian dishes due to its aromatic fragrance and slightly sticky texture. It works well in dishes like sushi, risotto, and rice puddings. Its unique flavour adds a special twist to international recipes.

Q.- What is the texture of Indrayani Rice when cooked? 
Ans: When cooked, Indrayani Rice has a soft, slightly sticky texture, making it ideal for dishes that require rice to hold together. The medium-sized grains become tender and absorb flavours well. Its unique texture adds a comforting, hearty feel to both savoury and sweet dishes.

Q.- How does APKA KISAN ensure the quality of rice? 
Ans: APKA KISAN ensures the quality of its rice by handpicking each grain to eliminate broken pieces, maintaining consistency. The rice is aged for 12 months to enhance flavour and aroma, and it is packaged in a hygienic, tamper-proof environment to preserve its freshness.
