Tilda® is a multicultural British brand that has been the go-to choice for rice aficionados for 50 years. Founded back in London in 1970, we introduced Pure Basmati to rice-loving communities from around the world, who were looking for aromatic Basmati that they couldn’t find in the UK at the time. Today we are proud to sit at the heart of many dinner tables with our wide, delicious range including many Tilda® dry rice varieties as well as Tilda® Microwave Rice, Tilda® Super Grains and Tilda® Kids. All Tilda products are made with carefully sourced, natural ingredients so they’re all nutritionally balanced and packed with natural goodness. By removing broken and inferior grains we make sure that our rice cooks up perfectly. Tilda® makes choosing the right rice for the right dish easy, allowing you to select the best grains so that you enjoy the most delicious flavour combinations as well as all of the authenticity of the original dish. So whether it’s a zingy Thai curry with a sticky fragrant Jasmine rice, a vibrant jambalaya with textured Long Grain adding bite or a delicious biriyani with slender, delicate Basmati – the rice you choose can really elevate your favourite dish. *Circana, Dry Rice Database, Value Sales, 52weeks to 12.08.23 All Outlets

Cooking Guidelines
Hob - From Ambient. Everyone has their own preferred way of cooking basmati. This is our favourite. Allow 60g of uncooked rice per person (approx. 1/2 cup) 1 Measure dry rice: 2 measures water.
1. For best results we recommend you soak the rice in cold water for 30 minutes, then rinse in a sieve with cold water.
2. Take a large pan and add 2 measures of cold water to 1 measure of basmati.
3. Bring to the boil, reduce to a low heat, cover and simmer for 10 - 12 mins until the water is absorbed. Avoid opening the lid or stirring the rice.
4. Remove from heat, stand covered for 5 mins.
5. Lightly fork through the grains before serving.
Alternatively: Rinse uncooked rice with cold water. Add to a large pan of boiling water, cook on medium heat for 10-12 mins. Drain well and stand for 3 mins. Lightly fork through the grains and serve.
