RCN Imports, Inc. is proud to offer Riso Pasini’s “Gran Riso” Arborio Rice for food service. This round, short-grain rice is named for a town in the Piedmont region of northern Italy.
The cooked rice naturally offers a firm, chewy, and creamy texture without the need for added fats during preparation.
Arborio rice is gluten–free and gentle on the digestive system, making Gran Riso an ideal option to add to your recipes and menu.
The Organic Italian Pearled Farro has the outer bran removed through a very traditional, old-school process called polishing, hence the name Pearled. This process makes the grain easier to digest because it has less fiber, and quicker to prepare since it will not need to be soaked before cooking.
Organic Italian Pearled Farro is an excellent source of plant protein, is rich in a variety of important nutrients, and has all nine essential amino acids. Farro is a type of wheat, therefore it is not gluten-free.
Organic Italian Pearled Farro is a hearty wheat grain with a firm texture and delicious nutty flavor. Farro is best used as an ingredient in soups, risottos, and salads.
