Tired of the same old chips that leave a greasy trace on your fingers? Pikolo rice chips are made differently. They are not deep-fried but produced by the principle of grain puffing under pressure: the grain of rice opens up from the heat and stays light and crunchy. The base of the composition is simple, unpolished rice, aromatic spices, and high-oleic sunflower oil. This is that shelf in the catalog worth a look when you want to crunch, but without the heaviness. The thin rice petals break with a pleasant sound, and the rich seasoning unfolds right away, without a long "warm-up" of flavor.
The line has six directions: from delicate cheese to spicy Tom Yum, so there will be an option both for those who like it spicier and for those who prefer a calmer classic. The chips are made by TM Pikolo, part of the company Hlib-Trade, which has been working since 1996 on natural raw materials and without preservatives. The 50 g package is convenient to toss into a purse or backpack, and the airtight packaging keeps the crunch to the last petal.
