The Venere rice is a particular variety of rice, with its dark, raven-coloured grains, considered an excellent source of vitamins and perfect for those looking to follow diets.
Its grains, with their characteristic rounded shape, make it perfect for summer recipes that involve using it with fish or vegetables.
The particular colouring is due to the presence of antioxidant and anti-cancer molecules found within each individual grain. These molecules are very important within the human body as they protect our cells from damage caused by free radicals.
It is a whole grain rich in starch, dietary fibre, and vitamins. These characteristics make it a perfect product for anyone seeking healthy and tasty cooking, while also being an excellent product for those who are usually looking for a proper diet.

Cooking Methods

The Venere rice has a very long cooking time, and we can identify four different cooking methods:

  • Boiled (40 minutes cooking).
  • Sautéed in a pan (after boiling) to blend with the flavours of the various ingredients used.
  • In a pressure cooker (cooking times halved compared to boiling).
  • In the oven (after boiling), combined with other ingredients in a baking dish (for about 30 minutes).

It is very important not to cook this rice with other ingredients, but always boil it alone first and then add it at the end of cooking to the other prepared ingredients as per our recipe.

An excellent ingredient to use in high-end culinary preparations proposed by great chefs.
