about the rice
This little known aromatic rice variety is native to the saline lands of Sundarban. Known for its high salt and water tolerance level, Daadshaal is round and stubby. Along with other aromatic folk rice varieties grown in West Bengal, Daadshaal forms an important part of the economy of Sundarbans.

what you can cook with
Daadshaal is suitable for frequent consumption as a table rice. We liked it in a sweet rice porridge which takes up a good amount of added flavours. You can try Daadshaal with simple broths and curries to enjoy a wholesome meal.
