Arborio rice is named after the town around which it is cultivated. These beautiful stubby white grains of rice hold their texture well during prolonged cooking. This makes them the perfect basis for an authentic Italian risotto. Arborio rice can also be used to make sweet rice pudding or used instead of Spanish rice in a Paella. The plump grains help to release starch during cooking, which makes for a creamy texture. This is a versatile short grain rice for making comforting sweet and savoury dishes
