Spanish Bomba Rice

Authentic Spanish Bomba Rice – The Premium Choice for Perfect Paella

Discover the secret behind authentic Spanish cuisine with our premium Spanish Bomba Rice—a gourmet variety grown in the heart of Spain’s rice-growing regions. Known for its exceptional ability to absorb flavors while maintaining its structure, Bomba rice is the traditional and most prized choice for making Spain’s iconic dish: paella.

What is Bomba Rice?

Bomba rice is a short-grain rice variety cultivated mainly in the eastern regions of Spain, especially in Valencia and Calasparra. What sets Bomba rice apart from other rice types is its unique absorption capacity. Bomba rice can absorb two to three times its volume in liquid while keeping its grains separate, firm, and fluffy. This makes it ideal for dishes where the rice is the star, absorbing the rich, savory flavors of stock, saffron, seafood, or meats without becoming mushy.

A Key Ingredient in Traditional Paella for Spanish Bomba Rice

If you’re striving to create an authentic paella, Bomba rice is non-negotiable. Unlike common long-grain or sticky rice, Bomba rice ensures that each bite delivers the full flavor of the broth and ingredients without compromising texture. Whether you’re preparing a classic Paella Valenciana, Seafood Paella (Paella de Mariscos), or a Vegetarian Paella, Bomba rice is your essential foundation.

Grown in Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) Regions

Our Bomba rice is sourced from PDO-certified regions in Spain, such as Calasparra and Valencia, where rice cultivation follows traditional and environmentally friendly practices. These regions are known for their clean mountain water and nutrient-rich soils, contributing to the rice’s superior quality and unique taste. When you buy our Bomba rice, you’re not just purchasing an ingredient—you’re supporting centuries-old Spanish farming traditions.

How to Cook Bomba Rice

Cooking Bomba rice is easy, but it requires precision to bring out its best qualities. Typically, you’ll need 3 parts liquid to 1 part rice. Simmer gently without stirring—this helps create the prized socarrat, the crispy bottom layer of rice cherished by paella lovers. Cooking time is around 18 to 20 minutes. Use a high-quality broth, saffron, and fresh ingredients to let the rice shine as the centerpiece of your dish.
