2. How is this different from Mapilai Samba Kanji Mix?
Mapilai Samba is a red rice variety—dense, high in antioxidants, and traditionally associated with strength and stamina. Thooyamalli is a white-heritage rice—lighter, more aromatic, and easier to digest. Thooyamalli Kanji is better suited for sensitive stomachs, elderly individuals, and recovery diets, while Mapilai Samba is better for energy and nutrition density.

No. Our Thooyamalli Rice Kanji Mix contains only natural ingredients. The aroma comes entirely from the heritage grain itself—no artificial jasmine flavoring or additives are used.

Yes. The soft porridge texture and easy digestibility make it an excellent daily meal for senior citizens, particularly those with dental issues, low appetite, or digestive sensitivity.

7. How do I prepare it?
