Arborio rice is one of the most well-known Italian rice varieties in the world. Selected in the field by farmer Domenico Marchetti in 1946, it owes its name to the town of the same name in the province of Vercelli.

Arborio rice grains are the largest among Italian rice varieties, which is why they are prized for al dente risottos, while the central pearl promotes the absorption of seasonings and flavor. Unlike Carnaroli, it has a low amylose concentration, so it releases a greater amount of starch during cooking, facilitating creaminess during the "mantecatura" (creaming process).

With a minimum order of €50, shipping costs are included.

For smaller orders, a €6 contribution for shipping costs applies throughout Italy.
