It has a long history: risotto has been a staple dish in Southern Italy since at least the 14th century; where due to the warm and humid climate, rice became an abundant grain, easily grown everywhere quickly after entering the peninsula. Nowadays, risotto has transformed into a worldwide phenomenon with myriad variations! You can discover the world’s best risotto rice in our carefully selected assortment!
