Riso Superfino Carnaroli Rice 1 KG.

Carnaroli rice was created in 1945 from a cross between Vialone and Lencino rice. Like Vialone, it has large grains, but unlike the latter, its grains are elongated. Carnaroli rice can be considered the highest quality rice variety, and in many respects, it represents the pinnacle of excellence among all Italian rice varieties. The starch in Carnaroli rice is the richest in amylose, a substance that helps give the grain firmness and maintain its al dente consistency. Its unparalleled culinary qualities lie in its excellent ability to absorb aromas and seasonings and in the balanced release of starch during cooking, which allows it to blend with and enhance a wide variety of flavours and foods, making it suitable for rich salads and tasty timbales. Carnaroli rice is not easy to cultivate, and therefore, large-scale production of this rice variety has never been seen. Among Italian rice varieties, Carnaroli rice is the one that requires the most attention, as it is particularly susceptible to imitations.
