Santo Tomas Bomba Rice, 2.2 Pound (Pack of 2) 2 Pack

Wie immer prompt geliefert und super Qualität

I’ve cooked with a lot of different rices over the years, and I’ve been using this one to make seafood paella for over 15 years now. The grains stay firm and don’t turn mushy, even after soaking up a lot of broth. It does exactly what bomba rice is supposed to do. I usually make seafood paella and the texture is consistently right. Each grain holds its shape but still absorbs plenty of flavor. It does take longer to cook than regular rice, but that’s part of the process and worth it. It’s more expensive than everyday rice and you do need to watch the liquid so it doesn’t get gummy around the edges. After trying plenty of other rices, this is still the best one I’ve used for paella.

Great for paella wonderful taste and texture.

I have used this rice in several paella recipes, and it works really well! The rice absorbs the liquid and plumps slightly. This rice has great texture and a subtle nutty flavor. I definitely recommend this brand for making paella.

We were supposed to br in Spain but were stuck home due to COVID so decided to make an authentic paella for Father's Day. This rice absorbed all of the liquid (3-4x its weight), stayed firm, and formed a crust far better than any other rice we have tried in the past including Calabasas and Arborio. One bag was all we needed for a huge paella. The paella tasted as good or better than any we have had in a restaurant and everyone kept saying how delicious it was and went back for 2nds and 3rds. Once you try this rice you will never want to use another.
