Read Basco Fine Foods Reviews

Short-grain rice, also known as paella rice, is the most common type in Spain. Selected from varieties such as bahia and senia, this short and rounded rice is ideal for cooking perfect paella and rice dishes. Its ability to absorb more flavors makes it the 'king rice' for such dishes. Carefully prepared by Hijos de Vicente Catala Peiro, a Valencian family business and one of the oldest in its sector since the late 19th century.

Was extremely tasty in a seafood paella that i made! Really soft fluffy rice, and the little sack that it comes in looks nice in the pantry!

I was so thrilled when I opened my beautifully and carefully packed box of food I had ordered from Basco. I really wasn't expecting anything like this. The rice in lovely cloth bags, entirely authentic in every way. I have just cooked with it today and it was superlative. I am so pleased and will be ordering more. What a boost in these hard times, thank you so much. And also thank you for being so helpful and professional when I called you with a query.

We’ve used this for paella and arroz negro and it’s brilliant. You can get the perfect “crusty bottom” without drying out the rice above.
