How to Use Organic Risotto Rice
Organic risotto rice is perfect for classic Italian risotto - slowly add hot stock or wine while stirring until the grains become creamy and tender. Use it as the base for mushroom, vegetable, seafood, or meat risottos. You can also use this rice in paellas, rice salads, or as a flavour-rich side dish. Its high starch content helps create the signature smooth texture associated with quality risotto.
Nutritional Benefits
Organic risotto rice provides complex carbohydrates for sustained energy and is naturally low in fat. While primarily used for its culinary properties, the nutrient-dense rice also delivers some plant-based protein and trace minerals. Its creaminess comes from natural starch release during cooking, so you get rich flavour with simple ingredients and minimal effort.

I tried this organic risotto rice the other day and it was an instant hit with the whole family. I have never bothered using risotto rice previously and bought this as an experiment . We will never go back to second rate risottos made with ordinary white rice!
