Health Benefits

Paigambari wheat, known as the original Indian wheat from the Indus Valley civilization, is a beautiful small grain resembling golden yellow sorghum. It belongs to the bread wheat species Triticum aestivum (sphaerococcum). With its simpler proteins, Paigambari wheat is easily digestible and is known to have low gluten and a low glycemic index. Farmers often refer to it as sugar-free gehu. It's important to note that Paigambari wheat does contain gluten, as no wheat is gluten-free.

\n
The Story

Bio Basics sources its Paigambari wheat from a small collective of tribal farmers in Jhabua, Madhya Pradesh, who farm organically. These Bhil tribal farmers have become the custodians of multiple varieties of heritage wheat seeds.

Health Benefits

Paigambari wheat, known for its healthful properties and ancient origins, maintains a simple protein structure despite being a bread wheat, making it easily digestible over thousands of years.
Many with minor gluten intolerance find Paigambari wheat tolerable, but it should be consumed under medical or dietary supervision.
Paigambari wheat is believed to have a low glycemic index, making it beneficial for blood sugar management, and it is also high in fibre.

Storage

Store the Paigambari wheat in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight
Keep an airtight container that is clean and dry

How to Cook

Measure out the desired amount of Paigambari wheat and rinse it under cold water in a fine-mesh sieve or colander. This helps remove any dirt, debris, or residual dust.
Soaking the Paigambari wheat overnight or for a few hours can help reduce cooking time and improve its digestibility. If you choose to soak, drain the soaking water before cooking.
In a pot, combine the rinsed Paigambari wheat with water or broth. The ratio is typically 1 part wheat to 2-3 parts liquid, but adjust according to your preference for the desired texture.
Enhance the flavor of the cooked wheat by adding aromatics like onions, garlic, or herbs, as well as seasonings like salt, pepper, or spices. Customize to suit your taste preferences.
Place the pot over high heat and bring the mixture to a boil.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot with a lid, and let the Paigambari wheat simmer gently. Cooking times may vary, but it generally takes about 30-40 minutes for the wheat to become tender yet still slightly chewy.
Periodically check the wheat for doneness by tasting a few grains. They should be soft and cooked through but still retain some texture.
Once the wheat is cooked to your liking, remove the pot from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes. This allows any remaining liquid to be absorbed and the flavors to meld.
Fluff the cooked Paigambari wheat with a fork to separate the grains. Serve it as a nutritious side dish, or incorporate it into recipes such as salads, soups, stews, or pilafs.

Kerala Matta is a generic term used for parboiled red rice grown in Kerala. It is also called Kerala Red Rice or Palakkadan Matta Rice. Some also call it Rose Matta. This red rice is medium size grained, bold and plump even after cooking. It is very popular in Kerala and tastes delicious with all Kerala curries. Once you eat it, you will come back to it! A small quantity of Kerala Matta Rice is enough to satiate you. If you want to have a controlled diet and do not want to overeat, semi-polished varieties of red rice like Kerala Matta are an ideal option.

The Story

Kerala Matta rice available in the market is virtually white or a light pink in colour. This is because the rice is almost polished with most of the bran removed. Bio Basics' Kerala Matta ( high bran) Rice is deep red in colour because we retain 70% of bran to keep the fibre and mineral content very high.

During rice processing, after the paddy is cleaned, it is run through a sheller where the husk of the paddy is removed. In this unpolished stage, the rice has 100% bran and is fully red in colour. This unpolished rice may be difficult for daily consumption or for urban palates unless you are very committed to eating full fibre red rice. Unpolished rice is an excellent option for those who are prediabetic or diabetic.

However, many regular Kerala Matta consumers like to have higher than the regular 30% bran. So this high bran Kerala Matta is for that segment.

Bio Basics Kerala Matta (high bran) Rice is from a single PGS-certified organic farm in Palakkad. The bran content is around 70% and may show slight variation from batch to batch because the rice is manually processed by adjusting the blade of the polisher. Since most of the bran is left intact, the rice retains its deep red colour even after it is cooked.

Kuruva Rice is an indigenous variety of rice from Kerala. The rice grains are small, round, and a beautiful burgundy in colour. It contains 60% bran and has a lovely nutty flavour. Kuruva Rice is known for its taste and easy cooking quality, and is widely used in Kerala. If you haven't experienced red or parboiled rice, we recommend that you start your red rice journey with this tasty and easy-to-digest rice, that is packed with nutrients and also aids weight-loss.

The Story

Kuruva Rice comes to us from a young farmer couple in Palakkad, Kerala, who are very committed to organic farming. Since the land used for cultivation is leased, they are not PGS-certified. They are among the leaders of the organic farming movement in India and have done only organic farming, ensuring no chemicals or pesticides are used throughout the farming process.

Kuruva Red Rice is grown during the main paddy season in Kerala It is sown in July and harvested in December. Harvesting is done manually as the crop tends to get lodged or falls down, making mechanical harvesting difficult. This additional harvesting effort makes the rice more expensive although farmers still like growing this crop. The rice is par-boiled in-farm using traditional methods, then sun dried and milled.

Health

Rich in fiber
Contains Vitamin B, Magnesium, Zinc and Selenium
High in oxidants
Helps weight management - You eat less as a small portion of Kuruva Red Rice is enough to fill you up.

Storage

Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place.
Add a few cloves, bay leaves or chillies to keep it free from infestation.
Don’t worry if you find bugs in your long-stored rice. This is normal with grains grown organically, and processed and stored naturally. Sun dry for an hour, shade dry for another two hours, clean the rice and put it back in the container along with some cloves, bay leaves or chillies.

Cook

As with all red rices, it is recommended to wash and pre-soak the rice for about two hours before cooking.

\n
Pressure cooker: 1 cup rice : 3 cups water. Cook on high flame for up to 3 whistles. Lower the flame and cook on simmer for another 7-10 minutes. Wait for the cooker to cool before opening it.
\n
\n
Open vessel: 1 cup rice : 4 cups water. Boil water before adding rice and cook on slow flame. When cooked the rice opens up and looks like a pink flower.

Single-origin farm

Karuppukavuni is a variety of black rice from Tamil Nadu that is long, slender and slightly glutinous when cooked. It is unpolished raw rice with 100% black bran. The rice is popularly used to make Kavuni Arisi, which is a traditional sweet made with Karuppukavuni Rice, coconut and jaggery. It can be used as table rice although not ideal for daily consumption. It is suitable for people with diabeties or prediabetic conditions as it is low in GI and helps control sugar. A small quantity is enough to satiate you. A rice plate or Buddha bowl of Karuppukavuni Rice served with blitzed tomatoes, cooked kabuli channa and vegetable saute is great for those who like a healthy diet.

The Story

Bio Basics sources Karuppukavuni Black Rice from a single, third-party ‘Organic’ certified farm in Mayiladuthurai, Tamil Nadu. The rice is grown, processed, milled, and stored without any chemicals. The origin of this rice is said to be Southeast Asia. It was procured by Chettinad traders of Tamil Nadu from Burmese traders. ‘Karuppu’ translates to black in Tamil. ‘Kavuni’ is a variation of a Burmese word for sticky rice.

Health Benefits

Rich in antioxidants and anthocyanins
High in fibre and nutrition
Good source of iron

Storage instructions

As with all rice that contains bran, Karuppukavuni can get infested with bugs.
Store in a cool dry place. Shake the rice container once in a while to prevent infestation.
If you plan to keep the rice for a long, shade-dry it for a couple of hours and put it back in the container.
