Acquerello rice aged 8 years 500g: How is it produced

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