Carnaroli Rice Metodo Classico is one of the most appreciated and respected varieties of risotto rice born from a cross germination between the Vialone and Lencino varieties. Thanks to the fine balance of starch, Pozzi rice for risotto is more robust than others, an essential characteristic that not only allows a better absorption of broth, sauces and other liquids, but also improves coating of butter and parmigian cheese, to yield the perfect richness.
Pozzi rice is the king of the rice, not only for the absolute quality which favors a better cooking process, but also because it is superior in retaining aromas and flavours. These features make this rice ideal for preparing tasty and gourmet dishes.
Pozzi Carnaroli Risotto Rice is considered a "young" rice. The harvest begins between September and October of each year and the rice is packaged in the same year of its production. The Pozzi family doesn't believe in the aging process of the rice as they are convinced that the rice should be consumed fresh, without preservatives and within its natural expiration date
