The Carnaroli Integrale Classico Rice from Acqua e Sole is truly extraordinary! It is no coincidence that Carnaroli is known as the "King of rice": thanks to its high starch content, firmer texture, and longer grains, it is able to hold cooking superbly.

The Carnaroli Rice is a variety native to Pavia, Novara, and Vercelli, developed in 1945 by the rice farmer from Paullo Angelo De Vecchi, who crossed two other rice varieties: Vialone and Lencino. The name of this particular rice seems to derive from that of one of his collaborators, a certain Carnaroli.

This is primarily a whole grain rice that retains many more nutritional properties compared to traditional refined white rice because, being less processed, it contains a greater amount of fiber. Brown rice is indeed a highly digestible food, very beneficial for the intestines, and it has a lower glycemic index precisely due to its high fiber content.
