1121 Steam Basmati Rice

Indian Basmati rice emerged as a great agricultural achievement within the country by marketing proper strategy and scientific advancements and strategic innovations. Supported by stringent Basmati quality regulations and modern processing infrastructure, APEDA has also played a role in transforming the trademarked Basmati rice, primarily cultivated in Punjab, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh into a processed product. The nation’s contribution towards the Basmati trade is 80% exporting 500 crore rupees annually across 100 countries, while Indian heritage is protected with a Geographical Indication (GI) tag. Moreover, the recent APEDA promotions have fueled the industry and added to this global dominance.

 What is 1121 Steam Basmati Rice?

 1121 Steam Basmati Rice remains the most exquisite and the only type of basmati rice exported from India. It’s highly praised for its:

1. Unmatched Physical Traits

- The extra-long grains exceeding 8.3 mm are unrivaled amongst all types of Basmati rice.

- Cooks twice as much longer than its steam basmati counterparts as its grains are fluffy and non-sticky resulting in a steam-like reset and restructuring.

- ¬The colour of rice is golden-yellow, which occurs due to steam parboiling.

2. Nature's Paints: Steam Parboiling and Unique Processing

• Step 1: Husking of rice is only partial. Paddy rice is pre-boiled with the husk for nutrient preservation.

• Step 2: Further refinement in the form of steaming is employed alongside complete removal of the husk. Rice is then polished to enhance visual appeal.

It improves its vitamin and mineral content by a staggering 70% when compared to raw white rice.

3. Why Chefs and Exporters Prefer It?

·         It has a perfect texture, which is ideal for biryani, pulao, and Middle Eastern dishes and the grains stay separate too.

·         It has a high global demand, which accounts for 60% of India’s Basmati exports, equivalent to 200 crore per year.

·         Also has a long shelf life as it lasts 2+ years due to parboiling.

4. Where Is It Grown?

• Exclusive GI Zone: Punjab, Haryana, Western Uttar Pradesh.

5. Key Buyers

• Middle East (Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq)—for biryani or mandi.

• EU/USA—Premium retail packs

Fun Fact: The number "1121" refers to its research code (developed by IARI, Delhi).

 Why India Excels in 1121 Steam Basmati?

Exclusive Cultivation – Grown in the Indo-Gangetic plains (Punjab, Haryana, UP) under GI-tag protection.

Advanced Processing – Steam parboiling ensures:

• Golden-yellow hue

• Retains nutrients unlike raw white rice

• Perfect non-sticky texture ideal for biryani, pulao and Middle Eastern dishes.

• Global Demand—Top export markets: Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, EU and USA.

 How to check if the quality of 1121 Steam Basmati Rice is good?

In an effort to keep its aroma as steamed basmati rice and also to make it non-sticky, 1121 is steamed to retain its qualities. Which means it is derived from long-grain basmati rice, which is fluffy when cooked. This sort of basmati rice is suited best for making mouthwatering products like biryani and pulao. 

1. Visual Inspection 

• Grain Length: The length of uncooked 1121 grains should be above 8.3 mm.

• Uniformity: Grains need to be uniform with few broken pieces.

2. Aroma Test 

• Genuine 1121 Steam Basmati should have a faint nutty fragrance when a few grains are rubbed in the palms.

3. Water Absorption & Elongation

• Soaking rice grains in water for about 30 minutes would be ideal, but not more than that. High quality rice should elongate twice when cooked.

• Grains should be long and fluffy after being cooked in a small batch. They need to be non-sticky.

4. Texture after Cooking

• Grains should be separate, firm, and non-sticky. Properly steamed 1121 Basmati remains non-sticky, as it is meant for biryani and mandi.

5. Certifications & Packaging

• Look for APEDA/FSSAI certification from India and GI Tag, which ensure origin from UP, Punjab, Haryana.

• Store in a cool and dry place.
