Idli Rice

Product Description

Idli Rice is a specific type of short-grain rice that is commonly used in South Indian cuisine to make idlis, a popular breakfast dish. Unlike the sticky and starchy texture of other types of rice, idli rice is low-starch rice that is known for its ability to absorb water and maintain its shape. This unique property makes it perfect for idlis, which are steamed and require a rice batter that can hold its shape. Idli rice is usually soaked for several hours before being ground into a fine paste, along with urad dal or black lentils, to make the idli batter.
