Read Basco Fine Foods Reviews

Bomba rice, a short and rounded grain from the Japonica rice family, is a popular choice for paella and risotto-style dishes. Originating from the Mediterranean region, this rice absorbs liquid and retains the flavour of stock without breaking up or caking. Its unique properties make it the 'king rice' for these dishes, despite the care it requires. Our bomba rice is carefully prepared by Hijos de Vicente Catala Peiro, a family business in Valencia and one of the oldest in the sector.

The ultimate Paella rice as it absorbs three times its volume in stock producing the perfect bite and flavour. Not cheap but you can pay twice as much from other vendors. Once you have tasted a paella made with this no other rice will satisfy!
