Pharoes Egyptian Rice Premium in a 5 kg clear bag with pyramid artwork, short white grains for stuffed vegetables, pudding and everyday cooked rice.
Pharoes Egyptian Rice comes in a clear plastic bag that shows the short, rounded white grains inside. The front panel is painted with three pyramids under a blue sky, a figure in Egyptian dress holding a basket of grain, and stalks of golden rice along the bottom. The words Egyptian Rice Premium sit at the top in red, with Pharoes in red capitals on the left and the Arabic name الفراعنة on the right. The bag size of 5 kg comes from the product name. As general background, rice is a cereal grain and the seed of the grass species Oryza sativa, and it is the staple food of over half of the world's population. Commonly, short, rounded grains like these are used in Middle Eastern kitchens for mahshi, stuffed vine leaves, rice pudding and soups, where a soft, slightly sticky texture is wanted.
