Description:

• Aromatic white rice from Wayanad
• Used for making kheer and risotto
• Organically grown by PGS-certified farmers
• Mullankaima is an unusual variety of rice. Kaima rice is very popular in North Kerala.
• Its variant, Mullankaima or Mullan Kazhama is especially used as biriyani rice traditionally.
• Unlike other scented rice that are long and slender, Mullankaima Rice is big, bold and white in colour.
• It is excellent for making payasam and tastes equally delicious as table rice.
• Its unique fragrance and flavour are a great combination when used for risottos, which we have personally tried.
  
• Mullankaima had gone almost extinct but was revived by a small group of organic farmers.
• It comes to us from the same PGS-certified farmers' group in Wayanad as Gandhasaale Fragrance Raw Rice.
• The rice gets its name from the needle-like protrusion or thorn (Mullan in Malayam) on the awn of the paddy.
• Scented varieties of rice usually have a low yield because birds are attracted to their fragrance.
• The thorn-like structure on the Mullankaima Rice protects it from birds and is the reason why it has a better yield than other scented rice.
  
• The rice is cultivated in the main paddy growing season of Wayanad, which is from September to January.
• It is harvested in January, stored for aging and processed from May onward.
• Easy to digest
• Rich in Vitamin A
