## Description

Product Description Tilda Wild and Brown Basmati Rice is pre-steamed and can be heated in the microwave in just 2 minutes, or stir fried in a pan with a little oil in 4 minutes. It is a perfect lunchtime alternative to a sandwich, side to an evening meal or a great ingredient in a larger dish. This rice is gluten free, suitable for vegetarians and free from any artificial colours, flavours or preservatives.Wild rice is slightly higher in protein than most other whole grains, and is a good source of fibre, magnesium, phosphorus, manganese, zinc, the b vitamins folate, B6, and niacin and also provides some iron, potassium and thiamine. A good choice for vegetarians and vegans as wild rice contains all of the essential amino acids and is therefore a complete protein. The antioxidant content of wild rice is 30 times greater than that of white rice. Antioxidants are important for good health by helping to prevent damage to cells that can lead to chronic diseases such as heart disease and cancer. Wild rice can be effective in lowering cholesterol and other lipids in the blood.

Review: 5/5: As Good as the Real Thing! Convenient, tasty, but does have a price premium. - I much prefer Wholegrain Brown Basmati over normal white, as I find it tastier. As an added benefit, it's also marketed as healthier! These packets are no exception, coming out perfect and much the same as rice you cook from scratch. I find it convenient if I'm in a rush and need a quick meal: just cook this, mix is some sauce/seasoning, and BAM! However, you can also use it for Stir Frys and reduces cleanup and preparation time. Please hold in mind that this is an expensive option for rice though. Another reviewer noted that it was as cost effective as buying normal rice. This is NOT the case, as uncooked rice AT LEAST doubles in weight. Tilda Wholegrain 5kg bags retail for £13, meaning that you pay - roughly - about £1.3 per 1kg of cooked rice (equating to 33p per 250g of cooked rice). This is a conservative estimate too, you'd probably save more pennies than that. So with these sorts of products, you're paying a 67p premium (and is why every company is pumping out their own versions of these microwavable convenient rice packets). Even with this in mind, I find them useful for when I'm in a rush and can't make as much time for cooking as I'd like. Good for taking into work too if you're in a rush.
Review: Brilliant - This was really tasty, 1st time for wholemeal I will definitely buy again. Great value for money and so quick. Great for quick dinner, take to work, if you had an extra guest no worries

## Questions & Answers

**Q: how can these be so expensive. I can buy these at morrisons supermarket at 2 for Â£2 thats 6 for Â£6 ????????!!!!!!!!!**
A: Then don't buy them from Amazon??

**Q: How many 250g bags of rice do you get? Only 6?**
A: Hello Darren, I last bought this item through Subscribe and Save over a year ago for £5.10 and even by today's standards I wouldn't pay any more for 6 packets! If you like your Tilda rice as I do it's worth keeping an eye on various supermarkets that do regular offers on Tilda sometimes for as little as 75p per 250g packet. Subscribe and Save have stopped offering this range and it's certainly not a bargain if you pay more than £1 per packet. This joker seems to want to get away with 200%+ profit charging over £3 per packet! My advice: stay clear of this. I hope this helps

**Q: Given the rice has been cooked already, how many grams it was for sachet before cooking it?**
A: 300g

**Q: Could I eat this cold without microwaving it? I'd like to take it camping and eat cold**
A: i personally have eaten it cold taste was a bit poorer than heated but fine. It does not say on the packaging whether it is ok to eat cold nor does it explicitly say it must be heated.
