Widely regarded as the superior choice for classic risotto, Riso Toro Carnaroli is sourced from Italy and prized for its super-high starch content, which delivers a rich, perfectly textured result. Especially appreciated in top-level cuisine, Carnaroli's high amylose content gives it exceptional firmness when cooked and outstanding flavour absorption. It's also notably forgiving: easy to prepare and difficult to overcook. Many professional chefs consider it the benchmark risotto rice, and it performs equally well with bold flavours like truffle, porcini, and saffron.
