Which is the best rice that be used to make idlis? I have experimented with Idli and Ponni par boiled rice. Ponni par boiled rice gave softer idlis but were difficult to grind as the batter was more sticky in consistency. What has been your overall experience?
Idli rice gives fluffier idlis compared to parboiled. But parboiled has so many uses in South Indian kitchen. Comparatively, idli rice is a 1 trick pony. So, I often use parboiled at home.
WebMD (https://www.webmd.com/diet/parboiled-rice-health-benefits) says that parboiled has a high range of arsenic which could be harmful for young children and should be restricted to 7 servings a week. My intake is 3 times everyday, that makes 21 servings. Is this a risk for me and my child ? Please advise
