Kohinoor®, born in 1981, Amritsar, Punjab. Three brothers took over their father’s business which traded pulses, spices and rice. They saw an opportunity to deliver consistent quality rice to the public and so commissioned an artist to design a logo and the Kohinoor® brand was born. India’s first rice brand*
After 10 years of consistent growth, they achieved 51% market share, making Kohinoor® the No.1 rice brand in India. The brothers then launched internationally, arriving in the UK in 2001, where they launched an authentic regional range of cooking sauces, side dishes and snacks. By 2013, Kohinoor® had become the No.2 rice brand in World Foods and celebrated 40 years of excellence in 2021.
From our roots in Punjab, to kitchen tables across the UK, everything we create is built around one belief, that food is one of life's greatest pleasures and brings people together.
So why not try our Kohinoor Gold aged basmati rice, fluffy in texture and available in 10kg big bags.
Try making saffron rice, just wash and soak the Kohinoor Basmati rice in lukewarm water and keep for 30 minutes. In a small bowl soak the saffron in 2 tablespoons of warm water. Drain the rice and keep aside. Heat butter in a thick bottom pan, add the drained rice and lightly mix. Then add salt and boiling water. Allow to cook on medium heat until all the water is absorbed and holes form on the surface of the rice. Sprinkle the saffron water on top of the rice, cover the pan with a lid and reduce the heat to very low, allowing to steam for 7 minutes. Open and fork the rice to make it fluffy.
