S. Andrea Rice

Tax included.

1 kg package.

Vacuum-packed product.

Cooks in 13 minutes.

Ideal for creamy risottos.

S. Andrea rice has a slightly smaller grain than other risotto rices, and its main characteristic is how easily the grain releases starch during cooking, making it easier to cream. Thanks to its good starch release, it is also ideal for arancini (rice balls), where the grains need to stay close together, and for baked rice timbales.

It takes its name from the historic Basilica of S. Andrea in Vercelli and is prized for preparing panissa, the city's typical dish made with rice, bean broth, and salami preserved in fat.

For orders over €50, shipping costs are included.
