Why Should I Get Arborio Rice ?

When cooked just right, the grain has a delicious, creamy exterior and firm centre. Apart from risotto, it can also be used to make sweet pudding rice, or as an alternative to Spanish rice in Paella.

Although it is starchier than traditional long-grain white rice, the extra starch does not mean it's higher in carbs. It is also high in protein as well as a good source of vitamin A and C. In fact, a cup of arborio rice contains around 45% of your daily requirement of essential nutrients.
