Product Description
Arborio is a white rice grown in the Piedmont and Lombardy regions of Italy and also in California. Arborio is a short, plump grain. When cooked, it has a creamy texture and firmness in the inner grain. Arborio absorbs more liquid than other rices, thus requiring additional liquid to be added throughout the cooking period. It is used primarily in the Italian dish, risotto. Arborio is often considered the pasta of northern Italy.

Great product--Great value May 20, 2008

I have been searching for a reasonably priced arborio rice. Locally my choices were only imported Italian versions. They are terrific but pricey at over $3.00 a pound (US).
I took a chance on ordering this product for a few reasons. One, the price delivered to my home was approx. $1.44 per pound, a significant savings. Second, I knew buying through Amazon was fairly risk-free. Finally, the idea of domestic rice was not one that bothered me, as long as it behaved the same in the skillet.
The product arrived in a timely manner, before the estimated arrival date. It was packed well and was clean. I would use this vendor again and buy this product again as well.
