How to Cook Perfect Gobindobhog Rice: Step-by-Step
Step 1: Measure the Rice Correctly
For 2 people:
1 cup Gaaoo Gobindobhog Rice
Gobindobhog grains double after cooking, so this measurement is ideal for a small family meal.
Step 2: Rinse the Rice Gently
Gobindobhog is delicate. To keep the aroma intact:
- Place rice in a bowl
- Rinse 2–3 times
- Remove excess starch
- Do not rub too hard to avoid breaking grains
This ensures fluffiness after cooking.
Step 3: Soak the Rice (Important Step!)
Soak for 10–12 minutes.
Why?
✔ Helps grains cook evenly
✔ Enhances aroma
✔ Gives a softer texture
Skipping this step may result in uneven cooking.
Step 4: Choose Your Cooking Method
You can cook Gaaoo Gobindobhog Rice in two easy ways. Choose whichever you prefer.
Method 1: Absorption Method (Best for Fluffy Rice)
Water Ratio:
1 cup rice: 2 cups water
Instructions:
- Add soaked rice and water to a deep pan.
- Add a pinch of salt (optional).
- Cook on medium heat.
- When the water reduces and the rice softens, cover and cook on low for 5 mins.
- Let it rest for 5 mins—this allows the steam to settle.
Result:

Method 2: Drainage/Boiling Method (Best for Large Quantities)
Steps:
