We are an online-only luxury furniture and lighting boutique, and do not have a warehouse. Consequently, all orders are drop shipped directly from our manufacturers to your door. If your order includes items from more than one manufacturer, you will receive multiple deliveries. Because we are dependent on the on-hand inventory of our manufacturing partners, some items listed on our site may not actually be available right away. Please call us at 888.784.4644 or via our contact form with any stocking questions and we'll get in touch with the appropriate manufacturer for answers, before you place your order.Ground Shipping
Small parcel items ship regular ground via delivery services such as FedEx, UPS or DHL. Orders typically take 2-3 business days to process and in-stock items will usually be delivered 3-5 days from the date that they ship (depending on origin and destination). If there is a delay, you will be notified by email. No signature is required for standard ground shipping, so you may want to make arrangements to have packages brought inside soon after delivery, if you are unable to receive it in person.Composition and care
Composition and care
We speak a lot about the importance of gut health—not only for beauty—but also in terms of our overall health, wellbeing and immunity. But before we can fully understand why the gut is so integral to our health, it’s first essential to learn more about the physiology of the gut itself—and how it works.
Description
Traditional fine rice variety with rich taste and aroma.
Product summary = Malbhog rice is a premium, aromatic, short-grain rice primarily grown in the Bhagalpur and Banka districts of Bihar, India. Famous for its unique aroma, sweet taste, and high nutritional value, it is commonly known as “Kheerwala rice” and is considered ideal for preparing kheer (rice pudding).
Key Benefits = Rich taste, easy to digest
Key Characteristics:
Origin: Cultivated in Bihar, particularly in the Bhagalpur region.
Characteristics: Short-grained, white, aromatic, and non-sticky.
Nutritional Profile: Rich in proteins, carbohydrates, and dietary fiber.
Culinary Uses: Widely used for making delicious kheer due to its natural aroma, but also used for pulao and daily consumption.
Quality: Known for being soft and easily digestible.
Health Benefits: Low in fat and calories, making it a healthy meal option.
Commonly Found Types:
Malbhog Rice (Raw): Used for cooking, especially kheer.
Malbhog Chura (Flattened Rice): Made from aromatic malbhog rice, often eaten as a snack with curd or milk
Nutritional Profile and Highlights
High Oil Content: Studies on Assam landraces identify Malbhog as having the highest oil content (up to 6.99%) among studied varieties, making it suitable for high-quality, fragrant food.
Moderate Amylose: It has an amylose content (AC) of around 20.2 g/100g, which contributes to a softer texture when cooked.
Low Starch: Among evaluated Assamese landraces, Malbhog showed relatively lower starch levels (roughly 69.4 g/100g) compared to others (avg. 75 g/100g), which may be advantageous for dietary management.
High Fibre: It contains significant total dietary fibre (5.26 g/100g), aids in better digestion, and offers better blood sugar control, with a lower glycemic index compared to common white rice. Comparison with Other Rice Varieties
Vs. White Rice: Malbhog retains higher levels of natural fats, nutrients, and antioxidants compared to refined, high-yield polished white rice.
Vs. Other Regional Varieties: While varieties like Bahadur Sub-1 offer higher protein (up to 13.77%), Malbhog outperforms in oil content, making it richer in essential fatty acids.
Nutritive Value: Due to its composition—high fiber, high oil, and moderate amylose—Malbhog is highly regarded for its nutritional value, often used as a healthier option for traditional sweets , Key Health Benefits
Digestibility: Its soft texture makes it light on the stomach, ideal for children and the elderly.
Glycemic Response: Due to high oil and moderate amylose, it is considered to have a lower glycaemic index, making it suitable for diabetic management.
Natural Aroma: The natural sweet aroma reduces the need for added sweeteners in dishes.
