🌾 What Is Jeerakasala Rice?

Jeerakasala (or Jeera Samba) is a traditional short-grain rice variety grown in select regions of Tamil Nadu and Kerala. Unlike long-grain basmati, Jeerakasala is small, plump, and naturally aromatic. It’s often used in Malabar biryani, ghee rice, and temple-style pongal due to its ability to absorb flavors and cook to a soft, fluffy consistency.

Thulasi’s Jeerakasala Rice is aged for optimal texture and flavor, free from pesticides, and packed under hygienic conditions to preserve its purity.
