All the character of brown rice, ready in a quarter of an hour: the rice polenta you didn't know you wanted

Una Garlanda's Precooked Brown Rice Flour

Una Garlanda's Organic Precooked Brown Rice Flour is made from broken whole grain rice: the broken grains of the biodiverse Baraggia rice are precooked by steaming, flaked, and dried, then stone-ground in Rovasenda. Precooking works its magic: this whole grain flour, naturally gluten-free, cooks in just 10-15 minutes, preserving the full, rustic flavor of the whole grain. It's the perfect ingredient for rice polenta, porridge, baby food, and quick doughs: the richness of whole grains with the convenience of a product ready in 15 minutes. Stored in a cooled warehouse and packaged only in food-grade paper, through Una Garlanda's clean, waste-free supply chain.

The roots of this pre-cooked flour are deep in tradition

Long before corn crossed the ocean, Italy was already a land of polenta: Roman puls, a thick porridge made from spelt and grains slowly cooked in a pot, was the daily dish of legionaries and peasants, so much so that the Greeks called the Romans "puls eaters." For centuries, every available grain was used in polenta: millet, barley, buckwheat, and, in rice-growing lands, even rice. This precooked whole-wheat flour brings rice back to that ancient history: pre-steaming and flaking—techniques that make grains digestible and quick to cook—meet with stone grinding, and the pot once again smells of rice fields, with times suited to modern life.

Choosing Precooked Brown Rice Flour means taking care of yourself

This flour combines three rarely seen virtues: it's whole grain, preserving the fiber, B vitamins, and minerals from the rice pericarp; it's naturally gluten-free, suitable for celiacs and those with sensitive stomachs; and it's pre-cooked by steaming, making it incredibly digestible and quick to prepare, a quality that has always made it the ideal base for infant formula and the nutrition of convalescents and athletes. The complex carbohydrates in brown rice release energy gradually, while the fiber prolongs satiety. The raw material is Una Garlanda rice, grown without chemicals or fertilizers: light and safe, from seed to plate.
