Known as the “king of risotto rice,” Carnaroli is a premium Italian short-grain rice prized for its high starch content and firm texture. It cooks up creamy on the outside while staying pleasantly al dente in the center, making it ideal for risotto and gourmet rice dishes. Its ability to absorb flavors while maintaining structure makes it a favorite for chefs.

For Carnaroli rice, use about 1 cup of rice for 2–3 servings and cook it with roughly 3 to 4 cups of warm broth. The liquid is added gradually while stirring until the rice becomes creamy and tender with a slight bite, which usually takes about 18–20 minutes.

Caviar of Rice: Carnaroli Rice, known as the “caviar of rice,” is highly prized by chefs for its bold white kernels, uniform starch release, and deliciously creamy texture.
