1 Kg Brazal Rice Maratelli

Rice of the Maratelli variety, this rice stands out for its resistance to overcooking and its high consistency, especially recommended for Catering services, Giant Paellas, takeaways, etc.

Especially suitable for soupy, creamy rice and risottos, thanks to its consistency capabilities once cooked, where the grain holds its entire structure for a few extra minutes.

The seed of this variety is originally from Italy, but our Maratelli rice is grown in Spain, in the areas of Aragon and Navarra. Our rice is cultivated in the crystal clear waters of the source of the Ebro river, in the Pyrenees of Navarra and Aragón, ensuring clean and fresh water for its growth.

It is a round grain rice with a pearly texture, which should not be confused with other varieties of long grain rice (which are not suitable for paellas) such as the Basmati variety.

These monovarietal rice dishes are always watered with pure water from the Pyrenees. This ensures uniform cooking of all grains, which may not happen when different varieties are mixed.

Its grain has a high percentage of amylose (between 19 and 21%), which gives it exceptional resistance to cooking.

Its extraordinary qualities, especially its consistency once cooked, make it the perfect rice for companies dedicated to catering, restaurants and takeaways, since, after cooking, it maintains a good resistance for longer times than other types of rice until its consumption, making it highly effective for soupy, syrupy rice and risottos.
