Acquerello Carnaroli rice is perfect for those who love making risotto and want to keep a high-quality rice in their cupboard that brings out the best in any sauce.
The grains are left to mature whilst still unpolished, then slowly refined using an exclusive process, and finally had their germ re-incorporated using a patented method.
Thanks to this process, Acquerello grains remain perfectly intact, firm and flavourful; they absorb the sauce without falling apart, retain their proteins and vitamins, and do not tend to stick together, maintaining a pleasant texture right down to the last bite.
This product is particularly suitable for creamy, well-stirred risottos, but is also ideal for boiled rice, timbales and more elaborate dishes.

For boiled rice, 9–10 minutes’ cooking time is recommended.For risotto, the approximate cooking time is 18–20 minutes.
• TRY IT THIS WAY: toast the rice for a few minutes in a saucepan with a drizzle of oil or a knob of butter, then cook it, adding the stock a little at a time.For a creamier finish, stir in cold butter and Parmigiano Reggiano once the heat has been turned off.
