Arborio Rice 1000g - Vivio

Arborio rice is an Italian variety of rice that is a key ingredient in risotto. Italy is the largest rice producer in Europe, harvesting up to 1.5 million tons annually, although this accounts for only 1% of what farmers in India collect. The advantage of Italian rice over imported varieties is that the entire process of growth, harvesting, and processing is subject to strict European standards. With imported rice, for example, we do not know what chemicals were used during its cultivation. The most famous Italian dish made with Arborio rice is risotto, a dish characteristic of Northern Italy. Arborio rice can also be used in sweet rice desserts based on milk or rice drink. It can also be used to stuff vegetables. Cooked Arborio rice is slightly sticky (thanks to amylopectin), moist, and is perfect for preparing porridge, desserts, and above all, it is the best rice for risotto, the classic dish of Italians. Its greatest advantage is its ability to absorb flavors well.
