Have been cooking with pleasure and success many years but can’t get this rice ?After one hour is still dry and raw ?! Very unpleasant and non satisfied!!! ### ⭐ Don’t buy. *by J***D on 9 August 2025* Takes forever to cook and is really poor quality. The grains remain very small. Don’t recommend and will be throwing the rest away. ### ⭐ Rice infested with weavils *by N***S on 10 January 2024* The rice upon opening it is infested with live moving weavils which may now have escaped the bag and infected the rest of my kitchen. With no obvious way of getting my money back as it can't be eaten. ## Frequently Bought Together - Belazu Venus Black Rice 1kg - Riso Gallo Nero, Vegan Black Wholegrain Rice, Premium Gourmet Quality with Rich & Nutritious Whole Grain, 2 kg (Pack of 1) - by Amazon Organic Tricolour Quinoa, 500g --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/137152112-fresh-olive-belazu-venus-black-rice-1kg](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/137152112-fresh-olive-belazu-venus-black-rice-1kg) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-24*
