What is risotto rice?

Arborio and Carnaroli are Italian-type medium grain rice varieties used for risotto. They release starch during cooking, which creates a creamy texture while the centre of the grain stays firm. Carnaroli holds its shape slightly better and is favoured by many chefs. Origin is confirmed on each offer.

Arborio or Carnaroli?

Arborio is the most widely known risotto rice. It releases plenty of starch for a creamy result and is easy to cook in volume. Carnaroli has a slightly longer grain that holds its shape better under long cooking, which is why many restaurant kitchens prefer it.

We can supply either, or both, depending on your menu and price targets.
