Keeping their artisan rice mill from 1935 and contributing to the conservation of industrial heritage in the Ebro Delta, the Margalef brothers, third generation rice producers, grow, process, and package their own harvest of the best rice in the lands of the Ebro Delta Natural Park. They craft their rice in an artisanal and traditional way without adding any chemical preservatives. For this reason, all their rice is vacuum-sealed to preserve all the properties and culinary qualities of freshly harvested rice.
We have before us one of the kings of Mediterranean rice, which despite its high quality, was on the verge of disappearing due to its low productivity and the great care it requires to obtain a healthy and good-looking grain.
Essential and highly appreciated for cooking paellas, dry rice dishes, soupy or creamy dishes, because when we cook it and exceed a few minutes beyond the optimal cooking time, the rice resists a lot and does not open, and when it does, it does so transversely, not longitudinally, it bulges (hence the name), so the grain remains loose and smooth. It is a rice with a great capacity to absorb flavors, with great resistance to sticking and grain growth.
Some rules for cooking it: Its cooking time is 10-12 minutes, needing 2.5 cups of broth for every 1 cup of rice (this may vary depending on factors such as pot, heat intensity, broth...). This rice, not containing any preservatives, once the package is opened and inside the cloth bag, should be stored in the refrigerator.
