Extra Long Basmati Rice Daawat is a long-grain, aromatic rice with naturally elongated grains that gain even more length during cooking, remaining fluffy and separate; its delicate, slightly nutty bouquet and elegant, fluffy texture make it a great base for biryani, pulao, curry, grilled meats and fish, vegetables, tofu, and fusion dishes; it also serves as a luxurious addition to everyday meals — even while cooking, it fills the kitchen with a pleasant aroma that promises a perfect plate. Preparation method: rinse until the water runs clear, optionally soak for 20–30 minutes; cook in a ratio of about 1 part rice to 1.5–1.75 parts water over low heat covered for 12–15 minutes, let stand for 5–10 minutes and fluff with a fork (in a rice cooker, select the white/basmati rice program). It pairs excellently with cardamom, cloves, cinnamon, bay leaves, and ghee, and its neutral nobility enhances the flavor of sauces and spices. Store in a dry, cool, and shaded place, in a tightly sealed container, away from moisture and strong odors, to maintain freshness and aroma.
