Free Italian Gourmet Polpa di Pomodoro 400g Tin Carnaroli rice is characterised by large and particularly elongated grains (approx. 7 mm) with mother-of-pearl colour. The pearl is the opalescent part of the grain that favors the absorption of the spices. It has a high amylose content, a feature that makes the grain more boil-proof, it does not boil and break for too long but it remains compact. It hardly loses starch, but has a good ability to absorb liquids and spices when framed. It is considered one of the best Italian rice varieties and is ideal for preparing an excellent risotto. As already mentioned, Carnaroli is the protagonist of risottos as it has excellent cooking resistance while releasing a low percentage of starch. It has all the essential properties for the success of a risotto. Carnaroli differs from Arborio rice mainly in its higher starch content, firmer consistency and more elongated grain. In addition, carnaroli rice is more cooking resistant than arborio rice because it contains a higher proportion of amylose.
