It delivers a luxurious creamy texture while maintaining an ideal al dente core, perfect for authentic risotto and versatile gourmet dishes. Vacuum packed for freshness, sustainably sourced, gluten-free, and easy to cook with a consistent 16-18 minute timing, it’s the professional-grade choice for millennial home chefs seeking restaurant-quality results and culinary creativity. ## Description Riso Scotti Carnaroli is the premium choice for anyone who wants to cook authentic Italian risotto at home with consistent, restaurant-level results. Carnaroli’s long, plump grains are prized across professional kitchens for a reason: they combine generous starch content with a robust grain structure that creates that unmistakable, glossy creaminess of a perfectly mantecato risotto while holding an ideal al-dente centre. The result: a luscious, silky plate of risotto that is both indulgent and precise in texture. Why Carnaroli? Compared to other risotto rices, Carnaroli grains are larger and more consistent in size, and their starch composition — notably a high amylose fraction — reacts beautifully during the slow-addition cooking process. As you ladle hot broth into the pan and stir, the exterior of each grain releases starch to create the signature risotto cream, while the interior remains pleasantly firm. This balance is what professional chefs look for: a risotto that spreads on the plate without becoming mushy. Riso Scotti’s Carnaroli is cultivated and selected to meet those exacting standards, making it an elective ingredient in the best restaurants and an accessible way for home cooks to achieve the same quality. Cooking with Riso Scotti Carnaroli is straightforward yet rewarding. The recommended cooking time is typically 16–18 minutes, making it simple to time mains and sides. The rice’s ability to absorb flavour means every ladle of broth, splash of wine, knob of butter and handful of cheese becomes part of the final texture and taste — creating a rich mouthfeel and perfectly seasoned grains. The forgiving nature of Carnaroli grains also means you can add ingredients (mushrooms, saffron, seafood or roasted vegetables) during the cook without upsetting the final bite. Beyond risotto, Carnaroli is surprisingly versatile. Use it to make stuffed arancini, creamy rice puddings, braised-rice side dishes, or elegant rice salads. Because it absorbs flavour so well, Carnaroli turns even simple ingredients into something special: a lemon and herb risotto can taste as refined as truffle-tossed versions when the rice is high quality. Riso Scotti — a name synonymous with rice in Italy — brings traceable production standards and sustainability efforts to the Carnaroli line. The brand focuses on preserving the supply chain and lowering environmental impact through waste-to-energy practices and recyclable packaging elements. That means the premium eating experience is paired with responsible sourcing. For shoppers, a 1-kg pouch of Riso Scotti Carnaroli is an investment in authentic flavor and consistent technique. The packaging is designed to protect the grains and extend shelf life (best before dates often around 20 months from production), yet it opens easily for measured use. Whether you are preparing a quick weeknight mushroom risotto, an elegant saffron-scented risotto for guests, or experimenting with arancini, the difference that Carnaroli brings to texture and mouthfeel is immediately noticeable. Nutritionally, Carnaroli rice offers the simple, nourishing qualities of rice: an energy-dense carbohydrate with appreciable protein for a grain, low fat, and minimal sugars. It’s naturally gluten-free and free from allergens (see label). For families, home chefs, and entertaining cooks who want the hallmark of Northern Italian cuisine on their table, Riso Scotti Carnaroli is the reliable, professional-grade choice. Finally, the ease of preparing an outstanding risotto with Riso Scotti Carnaroli encourages culinary creativity. Follow a classic technique — soffritto, toasting the rice, deglazing with wine, gradual broth addition, and final mantecatura with butter and Parmigiano — and you’ll find the rice responds with a perfect, silky result every time. For busy cooks, it’s a way to deliver meals that feel special but are straightforward to prepare. For chefs, it’s a dependable pantry staple that scales from a small dinner to a busy service. Choose Riso Scotti Carnaroli and make every risotto a memorable one. RECIPE: Creamy Mushroom Carnaroli Risotto (serves 4) Ingredients: 300 g Riso Scotti Carnaroli, 1 L hot vegetable/chicken stock, 250 g mixed mushrooms (sliced), 1 small onion (finely chopped), 100 ml dry white wine, 40 g unsalted butter (cold), 60 g grated Parmigiano-Reggiano, olive oil, salt & pepper, fresh parsley. Method: Sweat onion in olive oil until translucent, add mushrooms and sauté. Add rice and toast 1–2 minutes. Deglaze with wine; when evaporated add hot stock ladle by ladle, stirring, for ~16–18 minutes until grains are creamy and al dente. Off heat, stir in cold butter and Parmigiano to mantecate, season and serve immediately. DIRECTIONS OF USE: For classic risotto: warm 1.2–1.4 L (approx) of broth and keep hot. In a wide pan, sweat finely chopped shallot or onion in 2 tbsp olive oil or butter without browning; add 300 g Carnaroli rice for 4 people and toast for 1–2 minutes. Deglaze with 100 ml dry white wine and let it evaporate. Add hot broth ladle by ladle, stirring frequently and allowing the rice to absorb liquid before each addition; continue for 16–18 minutes or until the grain is al dente and the texture is creamy. Remove from heat and perform “mantecatura” by stirring in 30–50 g cold butter and 40–60 g grated Parmigiano-Reggiano (or to taste) until glossy. Serve immediately with fresh herbs, cracked black pepper, or desired garnishes. For other uses such as arancini or rice salads, follow recipe-specific timings — Carnaroli’s firmness makes it forgiving and ideal for preparation variations.
