In this detailed guide, we’ll cover everything you need to know—from its unique features to cooking tips and the best dishes to prepare with it.
What is 1121 Famous Basmati Rice?
1121 Famous Basmati Rice is a premium, extra-long-grain basmati rice developed in India. The number "1121" refers to its grain length, which is among the longest in the world—when cooked, the grains expand up to 2.5 times their original size, reaching an impressive 8.4 mm or more.
Unlike Sella (parboiled) basmati, 1121 Famous Basmati Rice is raw (white) basmati, meaning it hasn’t undergone the parboiling process. This gives it a softer texture, brighter white color, and a more delicate aroma compared to Sella varieties.
