The Superior Quality Carnaroli Rice grown in the Lower Pavese, the heart of Lombard rice farming, is universally recognized as the "chef’s rice." Carefully selected and certified by the National Rice Authority, it represents Italian excellence in the culinary world. Chosen by professionals for its flawless yield, it is ideal for those wishing to bring to the table a superior rice, capable of enhancing every dish with perfect taste, aroma, and texture.
features and qualities: The long, full-bodied, and shiny grains of Carnaroli have a high amylose content, which ensures exceptional cooking firmness and a natural creaminess thanks to the gradual release of starch. The certification from the Rice Authority attests to its origin and quality, the result of a controlled supply chain rooted in the Pavese territory. When cooked, the grain retains its shape and structure, releasing a delicate aroma, with vegetal notes and a slight toasted hint. The flavor is elegant, balanced, and lasting, with a velvety texture that envelops the palate and enhances every ingredient.
how to use: No soaking needed. For optimal results, toast the rice in a pan with a fat (butter or oil), deglaze with white wine, and continue cooking by adding hot broth little by little. Cooking time: about 16–18 minutes. At the end of preparation, stir in butter and cheese off the heat to enhance creaminess and aroma.
in the kitchen: It is the ideal rice for gourmet risottos, refined and creamy: from the classic saffron risotto to more complex recipes with truffle, shellfish, or reductions. Also perfect for timbales, arancini, or baked dishes where firm texture and the ability to bind seasonings are essential. This rice performs best with high-level cooking techniques but also delivers excellent results in home cooking.
