Why Punjab’s Unpolished 1121 Basmati Rice Is Making a Powerful Comeback in Indian Homes

Updated for 2026 | Based on current food, health & cooking trends

The Quiet Shift Happening in Indian Kitchens

For years, shiny polished rice dominated Indian kitchens.
Today, families are consciously returning to unpolished rice — for better health, authentic taste, and trust in food sources.

In Punjab, this shift feels personal. Food here is tradition, not trend.
At Uttam Kheti Group, our 1121 unpolished  rice carries forward this legacy — long, fluffy grains with a natural aroma and dadi ghar wala swad.

Grown in the fertile Majha region near Amritsar, this basmati reaches your plate exactly the way nature intended — no polishing, no chemicals, no shortcuts.

What Makes 1121 Basmati Rice Special?

The 1121  variety is globally respected for having one of the longest grain lengths in the world.
When cooked, the grains elongate beautifully, remain separate, and never turn sticky — making it ideal for biryani, pulao, and everyday meals.

Punjab’s alluvial soil, clean canal water, and traditional farming methods make it the perfect home for this heritage grain.

Why Unpolished  Is Better Than Polished Rice

Most market rice is plastic-polished to look white and shiny.
That process removes the bran layer, where most nutrition lives.

Our rice is unpolished, meaning:

• ✅ Bran layer is intact

• ✅ Higher fiber content

• ✅ Better digestion & gut health

• ✅ Lower glycemic impact than polished rice

• ✅ Natural nutty aroma retained

This is the rice our grandparents trusted — simple, honest, and nourishing.
