Harvesting

Organic White Jasmine Rice is typically grown and harvested in Southeast Asia, particularly in Thailand, where the warm climate and soil provide the perfect conditions for its cultivation. The rice is sown in the early spring and is ready for harvest in the late summer or early autumn. The delicate jasmine aroma and flavour of the rice are attributed to the unique combination of soil, water, and climate in the region. After harvesting, the rice undergoes a careful milling process to remove the outer husk, bran, and germ, while preserving the valuable nutrients in the endosperm. This results in the production of high-quality white jasmine rice, which is then carefully packaged to maintain its freshness and nutritional value.

The rice grains are long and slender, with a pearly white colour and a soft, slightly sticky texture when cooked. The natural composition of the rice includes essential nutrients such as carbohydrates, protein, and small amounts of vitamins and minerals, including niacin, thiamine, and iron. As an organic product, it is free from synthetic additives or pesticides, making it a wholesome and natural choice for foodies seeking a healthy diet.

The organic nature of Organic White Jasmine Rice means that it is grown and harvested without the use of synthetic pesticides or fertilisers, preserving its natural composition.

Best Before

We believe in mindful consumption and want to share some insights on best before dates, especially when it comes to our dried foods. Best before dates indicate peak freshness and quality, not safety. Dried foods, such as grains and legumes, can often be safe and nutritious beyond their best before dates. They may lose a bit of their peak quality, but they remain a valuable and sustainable food source.

We encourage you to trust your senses. If stored properly and free from moisture, dried foods can maintain their safety and flavour for an extended period beyond the best before date. Embrace a less wasteful approach by exploring and using these ingredients even if they've passed their best before dates. Together, let's reduce food waste and maximise the full potential of every pantry staple.

Explore Waste Savers, where you'll find items approaching or past their best before date at reduced prices. Embrace conscious consumption, reduce food waste, and give these products a second chance. Your purchase not only saves you money but also contributes to a more sustainable and mindful approach to nourishment.

Packaging & Storage

You’ll receive your Organic White Jasmine Rice in a compostable kraft bag (unless you chose to get a compostable resealable pouch instead). These will be fine stored in the kraft bag for an extended time although, we recommend decanting and storing them in an airtight container to maintain optimum quality. Once decanted, you can save multiple bags and return them to us for a reward.
