Profile

Short-grained Italian rice that features small plump grains, high starch content, and a creamy texture when cooked. It is much like Arborio rice and both can be used in many of the same types of dishes. Because it retains its shape well as it absorbs liquid during cooking, it is well suited to make the Italian rice dish, risotto. Since Italian rice varieties contain more starch than other types of rice, it is important not to rinse the rice before or after cooking, in order to retain the natural Italian flavour provided by the starch.
