    Hi Friends,

    Right now we are in Austin, Texas. Probably next month we will move to Burbank, LA. Last week we ordered a Ultra Grinder. But suddenly I got a confusion for the availablity of Idli rice in LA. Please let me know the current status and also the price of the rice. Is there any other substitute for Idli rice???


    Thanks in advance...

    Don't know about LA, but I have started using Blue Ribbon Long Grain parboiled rice available in Costco. Much cheaper than ponni or idli rice and the idlis are super soft (I too have ultra) - even better than idli rice! Check out your area Costco to see if they sell this.

    :hiya,

    I've been living in LA for a few years now. Idli rice is very much available in any of the Indian stores, especially in Little India in Artesia.:thumbsup

    I too have an Ultra Grinder and buy the boiled Idli rice only. So Please contact me if you need any info on the Indian stores. I live close to Burbank.:)
