PRIMORISO ARBORIO RICE 1KG

Arborio Risotto Rice

Primoriso Arborio Rice 1kg is a classic Italian short-grain rice prized for its ability to absorb flavour and release starch, giving risotto and other creamy rice dishes their signature texture. Grown and milled in Italy, this high-quality rice is a kitchen staple for those who love to cook.

Thanks to its naturally high starch content, Arborio rice produces a soft, creamy consistency while retaining a slight bite at the centre, perfect for risottos, arancini, rice puddings and even savoury bakes. The grains hold their shape well during slow cooking, making this rice particularly forgiving and consistent to work with.

Whether you’re cooking for a midweek meal or entertaining guests, this 1kg box gives you enough Arborio rice for multiple servings, helping you get restaurant-style results at home without the fuss.

What is Arborio rice used for?

Arborio rice is best known for risotto but is also great for rice puddings, arancini and any dish where a creamy consistency is needed.

How do you cook Arborio rice?

Cook Arborio slowly by adding warm stock a ladleful at a time, stirring frequently. This method releases starch from the rice and creates a rich, creamy finish.

How much Arborio rice do I need per person?

Typically, 75–100g per person is enough for a main dish like risotto, depending on appetite and additional ingredients.

Can I use Arborio rice for paella or pilaf?

While it’s not traditional for these dishes, Arborio rice can be used in a pinch. Just be aware that it may create a creamier texture than long-grain varieties.
