Ideal for salads and side dishes.
It is a long-grain and slender rice, approximately three times longer than it is wide.
Our long-grain rice is cultivated in the lands of Valencia or Andalusia.
It differs from round rice in that it does not contain starch, which makes it very loose, whole, light, and, as a counterpart, has little flavor absorption. It is ideal for accompanying sauces, side dishes, and salads, both for cold and hot dishes.
This type of rice is the most widely used in the world. Asia, America, Africa accompany their dishes with rice, just as we use bread.
Although in the past there was not much consumption of this type of rice in Spain, it is increasingly consumed every day because it is ideal for salads and side dishes.
