Parmal Rice

Parmal rice is a popular variety of non-Basmati rice, widely favored for its versatility and economical price point. Categorized typically as a medium-to-long grain rice, it is cultivated predominantly in North India. It is valued for its firm texture and its ability to remain separate and relatively non-sticky after cooking, making it suitable for everyday meals like plain rice, khichdi, and even commercial food preparation. Available in raw, steam, and parboiled (sella) forms, Parmal rice is a staple that provides essential energy and is generally easy to digest.
