Our Bamboo rice is an all-natural, short-grain Asian white rice that has been infused with bamboo juice, giving it extra moisture, a slight jasmine green tea taste and a gorgeous jade green color. After it is cooked, bamboo rice is usually moist and sticky, but still light and fluffy, making it a perfect choice for sushi as well as risotto and dessert puddings. While rice is often an unnoticed part of a meal, this exotic, hard-to-find rice takes center stage because of its striking, bright green color, fragrant aroma and delicate, herbal taste. One cup dry yields 2 cups cooked.

Imported from Piedmont, Italy, Acquerello Carnaroli Rice is the perfect, always ideal dente rice for risotto and more. The Rondolini Family has been harvesting rice on their estate, Tenuta Colombara in the province of Vercelli in Piemonte since 1935. It’s the richest, because it is aged for at least one year in refrigerated silos. Starch is more stable and flavor enhanced. It’s the tastiest, because it’s the only rice whitened with a helix, a gentle method which leaves the grain intact. It’s the healthiest, because thanks to a patented process the rice germ is absorbed in the grains, giving them all the nutritional values of brown rice.
It is a short grain variety with a pearled color. Its size is equivalent to that of the short grain rice, sometimes even smaller, yet Bomba rice more than doubles its size when cooked. Its main characteristic is its great capacity to absorb flavors and aromas and that when cooked it is always “al dente,” loose and whole.
