Mako's Carolina rice is the ideal choice for your lunch or dinner table. It is a white, medium-grain rice that releases rich starch during cooking, offering a juicy result without becoming mushy. It is the perfect companion for stuffed vegetables, such as cabbage rolls, zucchini with egg-lemon sauce, and dolmades, as long as it is handled properly. To maintain its texture, it is recommended to rinse it well under running water and add a little lemon before cooking, so it stays fluffy. It absorbs fats easily and is excellent for pilaf that won't turn soggy, such as cabbage rice and wedding pilaf. However, it is not recommended for risotto, as its grain does not withstand stirring.
