Riso Nero Gioiello is an aromatic black rice grown in Sardinia. Its distinctive dark color comes from the natural presence of anthocyanins, valuable plant compounds with antioxidant properties.
The versatile rice is produced using a special process in which only the outer husk of the grain is removed. The rice then undergoes parboiling, a heat treatment that improves its shelf life while also reducing cooking time.
Even after cooking, the grains retain their firm, pleasant texture and shape, without becoming soft or mushy. Its intense fragrance and distinctive flavor make Riso Nero Gioiello an interesting alternative to conventional rice.
It is ideal for rice salads, vegetable dishes, fish and seafood, as well as a side dish for meat or for creative Mediterranean rice recipes.
