Heritage Select All Natural Basmati Rice Cranberries and Almonds with Orzo Pasta
“I love the clean, fragrant taste of the basmati rice,” said one tester. “The nuts and fruit are an elegant salty-sweet combination.” Another person was so enthusiastic about the blend that she confessed she would “be proud to pass it off as my own. It cooked up perfectly tender—not gummy. I would definitely give it to company.” Wonderful served piping hot from the pot, this is also an easy dish for a room-temperature buffet or a picnic. To Buy: $3 for 6.5 ounces.
