Kalanamak Rice (Buddha Rice)
Known as “Buddha Rice,” Kalanamak is an ancient aromatic grain cultivated for over 3,000 years in the Terai region. Naturally rich in iron, zinc, and antioxidants, it offers a low-GI alternative to modern white rice. Its distinct fragrance, nutritional depth, and sacred lineage make it both a daily staple and a ceremonial grain.
