Ambemohar Rice is a fragrant, soft, and delicately textured traditional rice variety native to Maharashtra, cherished for its aroma that resembles fresh mango blossoms ("Ambe" means mango and "mohar" means blossoms in Marathi). With its naturally sticky, melt-in-mouth texture, this Rice is perfect for pulao, bhat, fried rice, festive preparations, and authentic Maharashtrian dishes. Its quick-cooking nature and ability to blend beautifully with rich curries and dals make it a timeless kitchen favourite.
Sustainably grown in the foothills of the Sahyadris and sourced from farmer communities supported by BAIF’s Farming Monk initiative, Ambemohar Rice retains its traditional purity and rich regional heritage. This heirloom grain is naturally gluten-free, easy to digest, and valued for its mild sweetness, soothing aroma, and comforting feel—ideal for both everyday meals and special festive recipes.
Whether you're preparing modak, kheer, pulav, or simple steamed rice, Ambemohar Rice elevates every dish with its unmatched fragrance and authentic Maharashtrian flavour. Its cultural significance, nutritional benefits, and exceptional cooking quality make it a must-have grain for every household seeking traditional, native rice varieties.
