Is Basmathi rice good for health?

It's not bad, but not great, either. Basmati, like all white rice, is mostly starch (carbohydrate). It's very low in fat, contains virtually no cholesterol and, of course, no trans-fats. On the other hand, white rice is low in fiber and trace nutrients compared to other grains, including brown rice.

Is rice renewable or nonrenewable?

Renewable... because you can grow it in a relatively short period of time. A non-renewable resource is one that takes a really, really long time to renew... like oil or coal. They don't grow, and only develop over very very long periods of time.

Is jasmine rice a whole grain rice?

Every rice starts it's life as a whole grain. But if you want to use only whole grain foods, you need to find whole grain Jasmine rice. Most of what is sold is polished (or white) Jasmine. You would probably find it in specialty organic or whole food supermarkets. If it says 'polished' then it's white.

In my opinion for 'everyday' eating, go for whole grain. But for 'occasional' eating, there is no harm in using white rice, Aborio for example. Brown rice risotto just doesn't work for me, the texture is all wrong. There is not a lot more nutrition in rice with the bran on, but there is a lot more fibre (1-2g). So if fibre or weight loss are an issue, don't eat anything white. If you aren't watching your weight and are generally eating a lot of fruit and veggies, then the odd meal of white rice won't harm you!

I hope that helps, :)

Can you wash basmati rice?

Yes, you can wash basmati rice. I use the aluminum container that fits into my rice cooker as a rinsing bowl. Pouring the rice in and then filling it up with water, I stir it with my hand a couple times, until the water becomes cloudy, pour out the water (the rice tends to sink to the bottom and doesnt pour out with the water). I usually do this two or three times, as I prefer my rice with less starch.
