Origin and special features
“FOR FRAGRANT BASMATI AND EXOTIC RICE DISHES”.
This rice seasoning was inspired by Asian and Indian cuisine and turns simple rice into an aromatic, exotic side dish. The combination of lemon balm, coconut powder, saffron and fine herbs gives the rice a delicate freshness with a hint of sweetness. In Thailand and India in particular, rice is seasoned this way so that it can be served in harmony with curries, fish or vegetables.
Taste and aroma
Fresh, slightly sweet and delicately citrusy – the lemon balm brings a lively freshness, while coconut and saffron provide a creamy depth. Dill and turmeric add a subtle spiciness, and jasmine flowers and parsley elegantly round off the profile.
Application
Ideal for basmati rice, Thai curry or fried rice. Add 1 teaspoon of the blend per serving directly to the cooking water or broth. Also perfect for rice salads, vegetable stir-fries or as a fragrant side dish with fish and poultry.
Good to know
Tip: Add the blend directly to the cooking water, so that every grain of rice absorbs the aroma. The saffron also tints the rice a delicate yellow – turning simple side-dish rice into an eye-catcher.
