Considered the king or beluga of Italian rice varietals, carnaroli kernels are the largest of the Italian rice. This large oval grain contains an even higher concentration of starch resulting in superior texture and velvety smooth risotto. Because of this high starch content and the longer shape of the grain, it holds its shape better when cooked. Preferred by most chefs in Piemonte, and now by many sophisticated chefs in the US, when making a risotto where the rice is the star, such as Risotto with Champagne or Risotto with Prosciutto and Mascarpone. The low yields and less hardy nature of Carnaroli make it much sought-after.

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.
