Considered by many chefs and cooking enthusiasts to be the King of Rice', Carnaroli Classico is a historic variety in Italian cuisine. It is a cross between the Vialone and Lencino varieties and has a regular, intact and well-formed grain, which is ivory white in colour. The flavour is rounded, sweet and mineral, with a clean finish. It stands out for its excellent cooking properties and high starch content, making it perfect for preparing extraordinary risottos.
