Pacific Highland™ Medium Grain Calrose Rice is a medium grain rice variety that has its roots traced back to the Calrose Rice from California. Once cooked, it becomes slightly soft and cling together thus making it ideal for dishes where the grains need to hold up, like sushi, risotto, or paella. Pacific Highland™ Medium Grain Calrose Rice has a very mild flavour and it can absorb any bold ingredients, such as herbs and spices, with ease. Pacific Highland™ Medium Grain Calrose Rice is ideal in your favourite Middle Eastern, Korean and Spanish cuisines and a good choice for delicious desserts.
