2.2 Lb Molinella Arborio Rice

Manufacturer: Riso San Marco Brand: Vialone Nano

This Italian rice is grown in the Veneto region. The Vialone Nano, with its squat grains, is an excellent rice that absorbs condiments very well and has a good yield in cooking. Much appreciated in the old gastronomical tradition in Veneto and Mantova, it is more suitable for risotto than for soups. It is often combined with the most traditional flavors of these areas, including pumpkin, snails, and game meat. Its popularity got a boost when the legendary Harry's Bar of Venice opened a restaurant in New York, where the chef uses only Vialone Nano when making his risotto.

Arborio rice was first grown in the town of Arborio, located in the Piedmont region of Northwest Italy. Its creamy outer texture and mildly chewy center make Arborio rice the popular choice when making the traditional Italian rice dish, risotto. Use vegetable stock with the recipe on the back for a delicious vegetarian entree. This short-grain rice can absorb and retain even more liquid than Spanish rice and it does not become gummy or lose its shape over a long cooking period. Arborio rice also makes a fantastic base for salads and is a natural companion to vegetables, fish, meats, and other proteins. With its high starch content and softly rounded grains, it also works wonderfully for creamy rice pudding. For a delicious breakfast, add some berries to a bowl of cooked Arborio rice and top with milk and a drizzle of honey or maple syrup.
