Tips and curiosities of the tomolo

Riso S. Andrea is one of the outstanding products of the Baraggia, a region of Piedmont that includes the provinces of Biella and Vercelli. It owes its name to the abbey of the same name in Vercelli, where one of the most characteristic dishes of the area originated: Panissa, a tasty Piedmontese risotto made with rice, sausage and beans.

The health benefits of Sant'Andrea whole grain rice

Sant' Andrea Whole Grain Rice, unlike white rice, is a highly nutritious food, thanks to its high content of fibre, vitamins and minerals. These components help to regulate the metabolism, prevent cardiovascular diseases and improve intestinal balance. Let us look at some of these benefits together:

  • Brown rice is a slow-release source of carbohydrates, which means it provides energy over a longer period of time than refined rice
  • Brown rice is therefore particularly suitable for those who want to maintain their physical fitness and general wellbeing

Choosing brown rice is a healthy and sustainable choice that benefits both your health and the environment.

The unique characteristics of Sant' Andrea Whole Grain Rice

Sant' Andrea Whole Grain Rice is grown in the traditional way, without the use of pesticides or chemical fertilisers, making it a completely natural product. Thanks to its unique characteristics, Sant' Andrea Integrale Rice is ideal for preparing tasty and healthy dishes such as risottos, salads or soups. Its strong flavour and crunchy texture make it a versatile and popular ingredient in the kitchen.

The differences between Sant' Andrea whole grain rice and white rice

Sant' Andrea Whole Grain Rice differs from white rice in the way it is processed. Brown rice does not undergo the same refining process as white rice. This means that the brown rice grain retains its outer hull, which contains important nutrients such as fibre, vitamins and minerals. White rice, on the other hand, is refined to remove the hull and germ, which are the most nutritious parts of the grain. Brown rice is therefore considered to be healthier and more beneficial for the body than white rice. Sant'Andrea Whole Grain Rice also has a stronger flavour and a slightly crispier texture than white rice. If you want to choose a healthy and nutritious food, you can be sure to choose wholemeal products.
