Superfino Arborio rice is the most popular rice used in the preparation of Risotto dishes because it’s increased starch lends this classic rice dish its requisite creamy texture. Arborio rice, the high-starch kernels of this Italian-grown grain, are shorter and fatter than any other short-grain rice. – Product of Italy.
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.
Basmati Rice tastes like no other rice on earth – a tantalizing flavor and a magical aroma. This delightful rice is so simple to prepare with its longer, whiter grains that cook up light, fluffy and separate. Basmati is a unique rice that grows only in the foothills of the Himalayas where it is watered by snow fed rivers and hand tendered by dedicated farmers. Available in 25 LB master sacks or 5 LB partial bags.
