Review: Excellent Quality Basmati That’s Hard to Find Locally - I ordered this Himalayan Chef Parboiled Basmati Rice on desertcart since it’s impossible to find quality basmati in my small town, and I’m so glad I did. Quality - Top-notch stuff. Cooks perfectly every time without getting mushy. Grain Length - Nice and long, just like real basmati should be. Gets even longer when cooked. Cleanliness - Super clean right out of the bag. Barely any debris to pick through. Grain Size - All the grains are pretty much the same size, so everything cooks evenly. Aroma - Smells amazing while cooking. That nutty, authentic basmati smell fills up the whole kitchen. Value for Money - Totally worth it. Yeah, it costs a bit more than regular rice, but the quality is way better and having it delivered to my door beats driving hours to find decent basmati. Honestly, this has become my go-to rice. If you’re in a small town like me and miss having access to good specialty products, this is a solid buy.

But it’s a giant bag and returning it would be a pain and take time (plus the woman at my ups is downright mean) so I’ll just give it a try! ### ⭐ Smelled rancid. Had no Basmati smell at all. *by R***K on May 22, 2023* I opened the bag, took a whiff and called Amazon to arrange a return. It did not smell fresh. The date on the bag was a year away but it smelled very stale. Amazon was nice and refunded me for it but they don't take food returns. I'm trying to figure out if I can feed it to the ducks or whether feeding them stale rice would harm them. ## Frequently Bought Together - Himalayan Chef Parboiled Basmati Rice, Healthy & Extra Long Grain Rice, Premium Quality, Fluffy Quick Cooking Aromatic, Non-GMO, Halal and Kosher Certified - 10 lbs - Authentic Royal - Naturally Aged Long Grain Indian White Basmati Rice - 15 lbs - Jiva Organic Yellow Moong Dal 2 LB - Non-GMO, Gluten Free - Great for Kitchari - Split Yellow Mung Beans --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/456642535-parboiled-basmati-rice-healthy-and-extra-long-grain-rice-premium](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/456642535-parboiled-basmati-rice-healthy-and-extra-long-grain-rice-premium) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-05-13*
