Every step is carefully controlled to ensure quality, and then the product is packed to reach your table. In this blog, we explore the milling process of Sella rice that makes it much healthier and tastier than other rice varieties. So, without further ado, let’s see how we process Sella rice through multiple stages, like cleaning, parboiling, and milling, before it reaches your kitchen.

Rice Mill Ensure Premium  Sella Rice

Sella rice, famous as parboiled rice, is processed to retain essential nutrients through a special drying and milling process. Unlike White Rice Basmati, Sella doesn’t break easily during cooking because its paddy soaking and drying procedure makes it fluffier and more suitable for bulk cooking. With a rice mill, you not only get quality rice but also an affordable Sella rice price compared to retail and wholesale stores. The special processing of Sella rice makes it unique and also increases its price, but with Habib Foods, you get quality Sella rice at market-competitive rates.

Step-by-Step Processing at Habib Foods Rice Mill

From the selection of raw paddy, the journey of Sella begins at our rice mill. We ensure that the source paddy comes from reliable farmers near Cahnab, with the correct moisture level to maintain its shape and assess its maturity, allowing for quality processing. Before the parboiling process, the moisture level must be between 18% – 22%. When it is harvested, ensure effective soaking and steaming, resulting in premium parboiled Sella after milling. Here are some steps you must know to perform at Habib Foods for Parboiled Sella.

Cleaning and De-Stoning

First, after collecting the paddy, it goes through the cleaning and sorting process. At this stage, we remove the husk, dust, impurities, and small stones. With assurance of purity, we move to the next step.

Soaking

Paddy is soaked in big water tubs for 4 to 5 hours, then, after straining the water, the grain moves to the parboiling process to absorb the nutrients.

Parboiling Process

Parboiling actually differentiates the Sella from any Brown Basmati Rice or white Basmati. Here, the paddy is boiled partially with the husk to absorb the nutrients using advanced boilers, which make rice more nutritious than regular basmati. 

Drying

After the steaming process, the rice shifts to modern drying machines where each grain dries well without cracking. All grains remain uniform in size at this stage. Habib Foods’ quality control team pays special attention to ensure proper moisture content, preserve nutrients, and maintain the rice for sustainable cooking and preservation. 

Milling and Polishing

During the milling, the husk and bran layers are removed with minimal breakage, resulting in golden sella rice after the process. Due to husk boiling, the color of the husk is absorbed by the rice, giving it a golden yellow shade after milling. The rice is then polished to enhance its appearance without losing its natural aroma.

Grading and Sorting

With the help of the quality assurance team, the grading and sorting are performed after milling based on color and size. Only long, slender, and undamaged grains pass the quality test by going through the optical sorting machine. At this stage, we remove discolored and damaged rice before moving on to packaging. 

Quality Inspections and Packages

Each batch of rice is passed through strict testing on qualities like moisture, length of grains, cooking, and aroma, then hygienically packed in a moisture-proof bag, giving you the traditional taste and smell when you open the pack. With quality packaging, we ensure the delivery worldwide, directly to your doorstep. At our rice mill, we also offer you rice varieties like basmati, non-basmati, and brown basmati at an affordable price in Pakistan.
