$18.00
Meracinque only sows 100% Carnaroli seeds and not sub- varieties, that’s why their rice is defined as “Carnaroli Classico”. Carnaroli is considered the king of risotto rices because it holds its structure resulting in individual al dente grains, and the high starch content creates the signature creaminess of a great risotto.

Beautifully packaged and delivered across Sydney Metro.
