Basmati Rice

Favoured by emperors and praised by poets for hundreds of years, Basmati Rice has become the ultimate rice choice of modern day food connoisseurs around the world!

View Products

Known for its longest grain, fragrant aroma and true flavour, Basmati Rice is grown in special regions of India and Pakistan.

Basmati Rice  has been exported worldwide and many traditional rice dishes of different cultures are cooked with long grain  Basmati Rice .

Cooked  Basmati Rice  is characteristically free-flowing (rather than sticky, as with other rice varieties) and can be uniquely identified by its fragrance and fine delicate fluffy texture.

Basmati Rice also has a "medium" glycemic index (between 56 and 69), making it more suitable for diabetics as compared to other rice varieties.

Brought to you by Hindustan Imports in its own branded varieties (Red Label, Blue Label, Three Elephant and Ultra Brand), Basmati Rice  is available in various packaging of 1Kg, 5Kg, 10Kg and 20Kg.

Cardamom

One of the world’s most exotic and ancient spices, Cardamom is the “Queen of Spices.” With an enticing, warm, spicy-sweet flavour and intensely aromatic fragrance, it is an essential ingredient in any kitchen.

Cardamom is best stored in pod form to preserve fragrance and flavour. Whole pods can be added to dishes, or the seeds can be extracted and added either whole or ground.

Green Cardamom Pods have a strong, unique taste, with an intensely aromatic, resinous fragrance.

Black Cardamom Pods have a distinctly more smokey, though not bitter, aroma with a coolness some consider similar to mint.

Cardamom Powder is more readily (and cheaply) available and also an acceptable substitute.

Cardamom is used as an ingredient in rice dishes, stews and curries, middle eastern savouries and sweets, and for flavouring in chai/masala tea and coffee.

High-quality Cardamom is available in packaging of 100g, 250g, 500g, 1Kg and 5Kg.

Psyllium Husk

An annual herb native to Asia, the Mediterranean region and North Africa, Psyllium Husk has been widely used in international cuisine and traditional medicine across the globe for many years.

Psyllium Husk has long been recognised as an excellent source of dietary fibre, due to its high fibre count in comparison with other grains, including oat bran!

This heavy dose of dietary fibre makes Psyllium Husk the choice of manufacturer’s of dietary fibre supplements, including the well-known Metamucil.
 
While used as a regular dietary supplement to improve and maintain regular GI transit, some recent research has also shown Psyllium Husk to be promising in lowering blood cholesterol and controlling diabetes.
 
Psyllium Husk can be sprinkled  over any breakfast cereal or taken as a dietary beverage, to supplement your dietary fibre intake.  Other uses include gluten-free baking, where ground Psyllium Husk binds moisture to help make bread less crumbly.
 
Available in packaging of 100g, 250g, 500g, 1Kg and 11.38Kg
