Unit price per 

Arborio PDO rice originated in the Baraggia area, a historical region of Piedmont where rice cultivation has been documented since the 1500s, and where unique soil and climate conditions give rise to a product of absolute excellence.

Baraggia is today the only territory in Italy to boast a Protected Designation of Origin for rice, safeguarding a rigorous supply chain that guarantees consistent origin, quality, and characteristics over time.

Characteristics

With its long, semi-round, and pearly grain, Arborio is the creamy heart of every perfect risotto.

Its firm texture and ability to absorb flavors make it ideal for rich and comforting dishes, from classic risotto to more elaborate timbales.

Versatile and refined, it also brings elegance to salads, appetizers, and single dishes, always delivering a full and satisfying taste experience.

In this package, you will find a 500g jar of our rice.

The recommended portion of rice per meal is 80g: using our practical dispenser, you will have 6 generous servings per jar.

Information

Born in 1946 thanks to Domenico Marchetti, Arborio is one of the oldest rice varieties in Italy, and through Italian migration around the world, it has also become famous abroad, symbolizing Italian tradition, authenticity, and passion in cooking.

    In addition, the dispenser cap makes cooking easier, avoiding the need for scales, balances, or other measuring tools.

    Finally, let's not forget the practicality of the packaging, which allows the rice to be sealed impeccably and stored in the pantry without any risk of contamination.
