Description
Discover the Authentic Flavor of Calasparra Rice from Murcia, Spain—A Culinary Staple in Our Exclusive Paella Cooking Classes.
Originating from the lush fields of Calasparra, a region renowned for its unique micro climate and mineral-rich waters, this premium short-grain rice is the secret to perfecting the art of paella. This extraordinary rice variety is celebrated for its exceptional ability to absorb flavors while retaining a firm, delectable texture. Each grain undergoes a slower maturation process, 30% longer than typical rice, ensuring it soaks up every bit of your cooking broth without becoming mushy.
Key Features:
- High Absorbency: Ideal for paella and other Mediterranean dishes, our Calasparra rice excels in absorbing rich flavors, thanks to its slow growing, highly dehydrated grains.
- Retains Shape: Even after cooking, each grain remains distinct and perfectly al dente, making every bite a testament to its superior quality.
- Authentic Spanish Product: Sourced directly from Murcia, Spain, this centuries-old grain adheres to traditional growing practices to maintain its purity and heritage.
Used exclusively in our hands-on Paella Cooking Classes, this rice has been a foundational element for many aspiring chefs and culinary enthusiasts who have experienced its quality first-hand. If you loved it during our class, you would find it equally impressive for a wide array of rice dishes at home—from savory risottos to comforting rice bowls.
