BALDO RICE

La Balocchina is a Piedmontese farm specialising in the production of high-quality rice. Located in the Biella area, it enhances the Italian rice supply chain through sustainable practices, the use of recyclable materials and processing methods that preserve the natural properties of the grain. It combines agricultural tradition with innovation, offering products that bring together quality, traceability and attention to presentation. The entire production process takes place in Piedmont, with direct control over every stage.
Baldo Rice is a historic Italian rice variety, obtained by crossing Arborio with Stirpe 136. It is characterised by large, long, pearled grains, excellent cooking resistance and a remarkable ability to absorb sauces and flavours. Thanks to its high starch content, it is particularly suitable for preparing creamy, well-mantecated risottos, as well as other traditional Italian dishes such as supplì and arancini.
Cooking time: 14–16 minutes
