Benlian Basmati Rice, the perfect side dish for meat, fish, vegetables… whatever your choice may be! 🍚

Gluten-free! It provides long-lasting energy and since it belongs to the group of aromatic rice varieties, every bite is a true explosion of flavor. With less starch compared to other types of rice, it’s easier to digest! 💪

🥄 Preparation:

After rinsing the rice well with cold water at least three times, add salt to taste and place it on high heat (induction setting 9) until it boils. Once it starts boiling, lower the heat to medium (setting 5) and cook for 15 minutes with the lid on. It’s very important not to lift the lid during the entire process to prevent moisture and steam from escaping — that’s how you get fluffy grains and avoid sticky rice.

When it’s done cooking, leave it covered for another 10 minutes, then it’s ready to serve. Enjoy! 🍙

During autumn, our metabolism subtly adjusts. The body starts craving warmer, grounding foods that provide sustained energy and comfort. This instinct comes from ancient survival patterns — when colder months meant fewer fresh foods and more need for nourishment that builds resilience.
To support this transition, it’s important to eat seasonally. Root vegetables like carrots, beets, and sweet potatoes are rich in fiber and antioxidants that help stabilize blood sugar and boost immunity. Squash, pumpkins, and apples offer natural sweetness and vitamins that protect the body against seasonal fatigue and colds.
Warming spices such as cinnamon, ginger, and turmeric gently stimulate circulation and digestion, keeping the body warm from within. And don’t forget healthy fats — from olive oil, nuts, and seeds — which provide long-lasting energy and support hormonal balance during colder months.
