Ideal for risottos, plain rice dishes and timbales. The grains are large, pearly and absorb plenty of water when cooking, increasing the rice's weight considerably. The way the rice cooks is unique: the grain cooks evenly on the outside, but tends to remain firm in the centre.
This is a long grain rice. Its size and intrinsic properties provide the perfect balance between bite after cooking and an ability to absorb sauces. This is why many people prefer it to Carnaroli when making risottos, while others use it more often in soups.
There's a good reason that Carnaroli is known as "the king of rice". Its high starch content, its fuller consistency and its longer grains give it the perfect bite when cooked. It's the word "Classic", though, that tells you you're using genuine Carnaroli rice.
Whole grain rice has far more nutritional properties than white rice, as it undergoes less processing and therefore retains more fibre. It is very easy to digest, helps the intestine and has a lower glycaemic index than refined rice.
This is a full-bodied, very compact, long grain rice that absorbs any sauce perfectly, yet the grains remain compact and well separated. It is ideal for risottos, rice with sauces and pies: its high percentage of starch makes risottos perfectly soft and creamy.
