Other Aromatic rices to select: Gandakasala/Gandesale, Mulan kayama, Gobindo bhog, Sitabhoga or Pimpudibasa, Joha (Assam) are common and easy choices as their natural fragrance adds much to the final dish. Not all of these rices will require pre-soaking, however. A medicinal rice like njavara can also be used, and would need soaking for just a few hours.
