Risella Risotto Rice is a medium round-grain rice that remains firm and non-sticky when cooked. It is parboiled before milling, a process in which most of the vitamins and minerals from the outer layers are absorbed into the grain. The advantages of Risella risotto rice are its excellent ability to absorb flavours and release starch, while maintaining its structure during cooking. With risotto rice, you can prepare rich and flavourful risottos. Risotto rice is also well suited for stews and oven dishes, as well as a side dish for a variety of meat, fish, poultry, and vegetable dishes.
