The Ancient Wisdom of Handpounded Rice (Kai Kuthal Arisi)

Rediscover the health secrets of our ancestors with KRK Handpounded Rice. Unlike modern “polished” rice, which is stripped of its nutrition by high-speed machines, our rice is pounded manually or using traditional slow-speed methods. This ensures that the bran layer—the most nutritious part of the grain—remains intact.

Why Handpounded Rice is Superior:

• Complete Nutrition: Because the rice is not heated by high-speed milling, the essential minerals, Vitamin B1 (Thiamine), and natural oils are preserved.

• Excellent for Blood Sugar: The intact bran slows down the digestion of starch, making it an ideal choice for those managing diabetes or looking to prevent insulin spikes.

• Heart Healthy: Natural phytonutrients found in the bran layer are known to help lower cholesterol levels.

• Cultivated with Care: Following our Rishi Krishi (Vedic Farming) protocol in Kalancheri, this rice is grown using only bio-inputs and natural manures, making it free from harmful pesticide residues.

Cooking Instructions:

Since Handpounded rice is rich in fiber, it requires slightly more water and soaking time than regular raw rice:

1. Soak: 30–60 minutes before cooking.

2. Ratio: 1 cup rice to 2.5 or 3 cups water.

3. Taste: Enjoy a nutty flavor and a satisfying, chewy texture that keeps you full for longer.
