For best results, rinse the rice two or three times until the water runs clear, then cook with roughly a 1 to 2 rice-to-water ratio, adjusting slightly for softer or firmer grains.
Soaking the rice for 15 to 20 minutes before cooking helps the grains cook evenly and turn out fluffy.
Store Parivar Sona Masoori Rice in a clean, airtight container in a cool, dry place away from moisture to keep it fresh and free of pests, and it will remain a reliable staple in your kitchen for months.
