Risotto with Tomato & Basil is from Tenuta Castello's "Risotti Pronti" line. The rice used is Carnaroli - the king of rices. Their carnaroli rice is cultivated paying great attention to the use of weed-killers (as allowed by EEC regulations), fully respecting the tradition and naturalness of the product. This mix is pre-seasoned with carrot, onion, celery, parsley, ginger, nutmeg, spices, tomato and basil. Easy to prepare - all you need is a little white wine and olive oil. Finish with fresh Parmigiano Reggiano and you have the perfect tomato and basil risotto without all of the hassle.

The small, quiet town of Desana has several beautiful attractions. A medieval castle, a charming bed and breakfast and a delicious risotteria, Ristorante Oryza. - all owned and run by the Vercellone family. Stunning views of rice fields abound just outside the town in the province of Vercelli in the Piedmont region. The Vercellone family grows their incredibly high quality rices in these fields the old fashioned way. Known as the Agricultural Farm Tenuta Castello, the area covers a surface of 320 hectares, of which 250 hectares are dedicated to rice cultivation, while the remaining are devoted to spelt, corn and poplars. They follow the whole agricultural and food chain of production, from the preparation of the soil up to the harvesting, from the plant processing in the farm with old stone grinding machines up to the packaging. This guarantees a product which has been controlled in each transforming phase.

In order to protect and to increase the value of Italian rice, Tenuta Castello is a charter member and company promoter of a consortium for the guardianship of all Italian Varieties - "Consorzio Tutela Riso".
