Bomba rice is a low-yield rice that requires more liquid and time to cook than Valencian rice. Named Bomba because of the considerable size it grows to when cooked. In paella theory, the more your rice tastes like each individual ingredient in the paella, the better. Bomba has a greater absorbency than Valencian and, therefore, is considered a superior rice. Short-grain rice perfect for soups/stews, risottos, paella, and more! This incredible rice soaks up 2-3 times its size in liquid/broth, absorbing all that flavor without getting mushy. Best of all it stops cooking the moment you take it off the heat. Perfect for home cooks, catering companies, and restaurant kitchens. Once you go Bomba, it'll be your go-to choice for rice!
