Description

Camolino Rice (Egyptian Rice) — Premium Vietnamese Medium-Grain Export

Camolino rice — popularly known as Egyptian rice in the Vietnamese market — is a medium-grain variety recognised for its round, plump kernels, soft and fluffy cooked texture, and mild flavour. VinFruits Global exports premium Vietnamese Camolino rice to Middle Eastern food importers, European ethnic food distributors, and Asian food manufacturers.

About the Product

Camolino rice is a medium-grain, slightly starchy variety with grains averaging 5.8mm in length. When cooked, the kernels absorb water efficiently and become soft, fluffy, and lightly cohesive — ideal for mixed rice dishes, stuffed vegetables, rice pudding, and Middle Eastern cuisine. The variety is highly popular in Egypt (where similar round grain rices are staple food), Lebanon, and other Middle Eastern markets. Vietnamese-grown Camolino provides competitive quality at attractive pricing for importers serving these markets.

Applications

Camolino rice is used in Middle Eastern cuisine (rice pilaf, stuffed grape leaves, mujaddara), Mediterranean rice dishes, Asian congee, rice pudding desserts, and Japanese-style rice dishes requiring shorter grains. It is also used in food service applications where a soft-textured, easily portionable rice is needed.
