Details

Change up your traditional grain dishes with this Campanini 1 lb. Venere black rice. Sourced from Italy, this black rice is incredibly rare due to generally low yields. It's usually found in Asian and Italian cuisines, and is sometimes referred to as purple or forbidden rice because of its surprising dark color. It boasts a medium grain size that allows for deliciously rich and perfectly-textured rice dishes. It's also very easy to prepare and provides for a variety of uses in a busy commercial kitchen.

This black rice is great for large rice dishes such as colorful jambalayas and hearty rice casseroles. Alternatively, use it in a new take on risotto, as the base in colorful grain bowls with bright vegetables and grilled chicken, or as a simple side dish alongside your signature Asian and Italian fare. Whether it's a main component or served as a simple side dish, this rice makes the perfect complement to your chicken, fish, steak, or vegetarian entrees. This case comes with (12) 1 lb. boxes per case to provide convenient use and easy storage in your fast-paced establishment.

Great deal! Even better was being able to remove a heavy item from my usual grocery shopping and not having to haul from the store. Rice cooked up just as expected and shipped well. I will continue to order!

Oh my goodness, this rice is delicious! I had to set my rice cooker (Zojirushi) on "softer" to get the right finish on this rice, but now that I've got it dialed in, this is one of my favorite rices.

Good quality Arborio rice for making risottos. Starchy enough to make a creamy dish and toasts well. 25 lbs is a large quantity, but it stores easily in an 18qt container that I scoop from when needed.

This aborio rice is really high quality. It feels just as high quality as the aborio rice my local health foods store sells for four times the price. It is great for risotto – it holds its texture and does not go soft easily.
