Carnaroli classico

Carnaroli is considered by chefs to be the queen of risotto rice varieties — and La Balocchina grows it in the Lombardy lowlands, where the Po Valley has provided the best conditions for round-grain rice for centuries: heavy soils, controlled irrigation, and a temperate climate.

The Classico from La Balocchina impresses with its high starch content and firm core. During cooking, it slowly releases amylose — which ensures the typical creamy binding of the risotto — without overcooking. Cooking time: 16–18 minutes. The grain remains al dente, and the surface becomes silky and creamy.

Pairs with classic risottos featuring porcini mushrooms, seafood, or braised meat. Serve with a dry Lugana or a Soave Classico that does not overpower the creaminess of the dish.
