Description
  • Health food for all ages

Navara Red Rices are very famous for their curative properties. The grains are medium-sized, slightly flat, and red in colour since it is unpolished with 100% bran. Steamed Navara Rice has a nutty flavour and can be eaten with Indian curries. It is ideal for making kanji as it is very light on the stomach, yet filling. The rice can be powdered, cooked with milk, and given to infants as a healthy cereal.

 

The Story

This medicinal rice is used extensively in Ayurveda for external application and consumption. Ancient texts of Ayurveda and medicine such as Ashtanga Hridaya and Susruta Samhita, refer to Navara Red Rice as a ‘pious grain’ used on auspicious occasions. Keralites like to have Navara Kunji or gruel during Monsoons to boost immunity and to feel energised.

The rice is usually grown in Kerala and Karnataka. Bio Basics sources Navara Red Rice from both states but mostly from a certified farmer’s group in Karnataka. This rice is grown, processed, milled, and stored without any chemicals.

    Navara rice never fails to delight

    Am pretty new to unpolished rice, and navara rice is a favorite. I understand this is a variety of rain-fed rice.
    It has a wonderful fragrance, right from when one opens the package. Once cooked, the whole home is filled with a warm, comforting aroma. I boil the rice in an earthen pot, with enough water, and cook till almost dry.
    I eat rice as an accompaniment to vegetables and some meat, and navara rice is delicious.
