Carnaroli Rice is an Italian White Rice grown in the Piedmont
and Lombardy regions of Italy. Considered to be one of the finest of
the rice's used to make Risotto, Carnaroli is a short, plump grain.
It's in the same family as Arborio Rice, however, the grain is
larger. When cooked it has a creamy texture with the inner germ
kernel remaining firm. This Rice can absorb much more liquid than
other rice's. It is used primarily in the Italian Dish, Risotto.
Risotto is often considered the pasta of Northern Italy.
Suggested Use:
Carnaroli Rice is used primarily in Risotto dishes, which often
reflect the seasons. In Spring use Baby Vegetables, in Summer Tomato
and Basil, in Autumn Wild Mushrooms and in Winter Seafood. Serve as
an entree or side dish.
