Traditionally prepared by hot sand frying, our puffed rice is made from Kalirai that gives it a gentle bite, a savoury finish and the characteristic specks of red from the grain. Chemical-free, muri is ideal for small hunger pangs and guilt-free munching.

Kalirai is an heirloom rice of Bengal that can be planted in deep water, as it can tolerate up to 15 feet of submergence. The farmers prefer to grow it in lowlands as it is submergence tolerant. Interestingly, this variety is also found to be drought tolerant. The husked grain of this folk-rice is found to be brownish black in colour, while the rice kernel obtained is reddish in appearance.
