Acquerello Rice: the processing

Twenty delicate steps are needed to obtain Acquerello rice. Starting from the helix, still considered the best method to polish rice through the rubbing of the grains.
In this particular variant, the raw rice is aged for up to seven years in silos at a controlled temperature below 15°.
In this way, the starch stabilizes, and when it is cooked, it will disperse less, and each individual grain will increase its ability to absorb seasonings.
The reintegration of the germ is the final stage. The germ is the vital part of the rice and contains the majority of vitamins and micronutrients. During processing, the germ is separated from the grain, but thanks to a patented process, it is subsequently reintegrated to allow the flavor of white rice to combine with the nutritional elements of brown rice.
