Nikado Noodles

MUTHU means pearl. Samba is a variety of rice grown in Tamil Nadu, some other parts of India, and Sri Lanka. It has a small ovular grain, compared to the long grain of basmati rice. This rice is also very popular in West Bengal and is known as "Gobindo-bhog." Samba rice has a distinct taste and can be described as having a more "starchy" or "corny" flavor. As such, it is an acquired taste preferred primarily by the locals of south India and Sri Lanka.
