- Carnaroli is a plump, short grained Italian white rice. It is also known as the “Caviar of rice”. Carnaroli, arborio, and Vialone Nano are rices suitable for risotto recipes.
- This long oval grain contains the highest concentration of starch resulting in superior texture when making a velvety risotto. Because of its thickness, the rice keeps al dente even after cooking, making it the preferred choice for top chefs.
- Carnaroli Rice is more forgiving than other varieties of Italian rice. Its high starch content allows it to plump up to three times its size when cooked, absorbing large amounts of liquid (and flavour!)while still holding its shape.
- Carnaroli rice works particularly well with seafood, parmigiano reggiano cheese and truffle oil. A versatile ingredient, Carnaroli rice also works perfectly for paella, sushi and rice salads, and is a delight for pastry chefs to use in desserts like traditional Italian torta di riso (rice cake), or a more modern vanilla rice pudding with mixed berries.
- So do yourself a favor and keep an eye out for carnaroli the next time you plan to make risotto.(Cook between 15 and 17 minutes for a nice result.)

Carnaroli rice, like arborio rice, is grown in the Piedmont and Lombardy regions of northwest Italy. A short grain, plump Italian white rice, Carnaroli is considered one of the best rices to use in risotto. Carnaroli has a larger grain than the other Italian white rice varieties, but still cooks to a creamy texture with a firm body. Widely considered the finest of the risottos rice varieties, carnaroli has been nicknamed “the caviar of rice”. It is slightly more sensitive with regard to cooking time and can absorb large amounts of liquid, but carnaroli’s creamy texture and improved flavor keep it a favorite for chefs everywhere risotto is popular. Carnaroli rice is usually more expensive than other Italian rices. It is more difficult to grow and harvest, the plants break easily. Carnaroli is more forgiving when cooked, it absorbs more liquid and seems to reach the creamy al dente texture easily. Our Carnaroli rice comes in Vacume Pack.
