Most people use the well known Arborio rice when making risotto, however using Carnaroli rice will result in a better dish. Looking like a longer-grain Arborio, Carnaroli naturally contains more starch and amylose. The higher amylose allows it to hold its shape better during the slow risotto cooking process, and the higher starch content results in a creamier risotto.

Applications: This rice’s ability to hold large amounts of liquid makes it ideal for making risotto. For instructions on how to make a risotto, please refer to our blog entry: How to Make Risotto and How to Embellish it. Because surface starch is essential to a good risotto, please do not wash this rice prior to cooking with it. Its high starch content also makes it perfect for rice puddings.

How to Store and Share: Please keep rice in a cool, dry place.

Origin: Argentina

Specifications: This rice is sold in 10 lb bags.

Shipping Method: UPS Ground
