Arborio rice, or risotto rice, is a variety of short-grain rice used primarily in the classical preparation of risotto, and is named after the area in Italy where it was originally cultivated. Arborio rice is short, fat, and slightly oval-shaped with a pearly white exterior.

Because it undergoes less milling than ordinary long-grain rice, arborio retains more of its natural starch content. Cooking the rice releases this starch, resulting in a firmer, chewier, and creamier rice compared to other kinds of rice.

Top tips for risotto: Do not let it sit for any length of time as the starch will immediately start to congeal, causing it to turn stiff and gluey
