Country of origin
Description
Baldo rice is originally from Turkey and has the largest grain of all types of rice. The appearance of the grain is slightly translucent, as it contains less starch than other types of rice. Baldo rice is grown in the Balıkesir Gönen region and is mainly used for making pilaf.
To identify an original Baldo rice, you need to pay attention to the "chalky grain of rice" - that is, to the excessive white in the core of the rice grain.
If this "chalky grain" is too large, it is not an original Baldo rice, but an imported one. This differentiation arises from the characteristics of the soil in which it is grown.
The secret to cooking perfect baldo rice lies in the water-to-rice ratio and the cooking time.
