So, what is risotto rice?

Risotto rice, also known as Arborio rice, is a short-grain, high-starch white rice with a creamy texture and slightly chewy consistency when cooked. This Italian variety of rice has a distinct ability to absorb liquid while releasing starch, making it perfect for risotto dishes. The grain's structure allows it to hold up against the constant stirring required for risotto, resulting in a rich, velvety dish. Its subtle nutty flavor and ability to blend well with any ingredient give rise to endless possibilities for delicious, warm comfort food.
