You simply cannot make a risotto without this rice! It has higher starch content that other rice varieties and this is what gives you that gorgeous creaminess associated with a good risotto.
This medium-grain rice from Italy's Po Valley is also better at absorbing stock. Word on the street says that risotto takes ages to make, but this is untrue. You can whip up a restaurant-quality plate of it in just 20 minutes!
All our rice is certified organic by the Soil Association and is ethically sourced and packed by Taz Copak who have a long history of building good relations with their growers and suppliers.

Our risotto rice is easy to prepare and can be used for a variety of dishes other than risotto. Just cover and simmer for 15 minutes before draining. To make risotto itself involves a lot of stirring so start flexing those muscles now! Store in a cool, dry place. We recommend storing it in a sealed container as a mixture of air and moisture can cause the rice to go mouldy. Suitable for home freezing.
