Carnaroli rice

Carnaroli rice is a high-quality Italian short-grain rice prized for its ability to absorb liquids and release starch during cooking. It has a firm texture and remains slightly al dente, making it ideal for creamy dishes like risotto. Its balance of moisture retention and firmness creates a rich, velvety consistency without becoming mushy. Often called the "king of rices," Carnaroli offers a luxurious mouthfeel and maintains its shape better than other varieties, making it a favorite among chefs for achieving perfect risottos and rice dishes that require precise texture control.
