Question:	What is the arsenic level of this rice

Question:	Why will this cust 15 dollars more than other places
Answer:	Checked all over the bag and says nothing about being aged. Comes from India originally. My package says it good to 2021 if you want to call that aged lol
Question:	How does one properly open the bag
Answer:	No need to soak or wash. I put my rice in a pan with water, swirl it around, and pour off that water. Then I add new water (1 1/2 cups for 1 cup rice), turn on the heat, bring to boiling, cover. Then reduce the heat to the lowest setting for 16 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit covered 5 minutes. Fluff w fork. That’s my method, anyway. I like this Bombay Market rice a lot, will reorder.

User questions & answers

Question:	Which are unpolished basmati rice

User questions & answers

Question:	How is this delivered? will it be in an amazon box? i just don't want it exposed if it's just within its sack. tia
Answer:	4.5- 3/4 cup (100g) servings
Question:	Small black bugs are inside the bag. when i wash rice they are floating. what can be done
Answer:	The bad doesn't say, but the company is located in Canada. Have you looked at their web site?
Question:	How long is each grain fully cooked
Answer:	These beans are NOT soft. Yes, they had to be soaked in order to sprout them, but then they had to dry them to make them shelf stable. The instructions do mention soaking for shorter cooking time. The instructions, exactly as written on the bag:Instructions:Add 1 cup of Beans to 4 cups of boiling water in a medium saucepan. Boil for 15 minutes.Remove from heat and drain.Ready to consume, or add to any meal.Makes 4 servings.Presoak for shorter cooking time.BTW, I used to eat these without presoaking or cooking and I loved the flavor -- then I broke a tooth. If you want to eat these straight out of the bag, do so at your own risk. Fixing a broken tooth can be quite painful AND expensive. Now I boil some water, remove the water from the heat, then add the beans. After soaking an hour or two, they're soft enough to eat as a snack (or add to a cooked dish).
Question:	There is a rumour of synthetic rice adulteration in Royal brand basmati, especially that is sold from Amazon. Can i buy this rice with confidence
Answer:	Hi Jean, I don't know precisely where these beans are grown, but I just assumed it was somewhere in Canada because it has the canadian organic label. I like the beans but the expense of shipping was over the top for me so I have to figure out a different source. Hope this is helpful! Best regards, Louise
