RiceSelect Arborio Rice, Italian-Style Rice for Risotto, 2 lb Jar

been using this brand for years. Never disappointed. Add some olive oil. Brown a little, or skip that step. Add some broth, bring to slow boil. Keep adding broth as it absorbs it while cooking. Generally 22-25 minutes. Never leave it alone, adding broth a little at a time. I add fresh garlic and sweet onions browned ahead of time. Add uncooked shrimp or pre cooked sausage toward the end. Add a little cheese, too. Makes a meal. Or a side.

Definitely cheaper buying it this way and making your own rather than buying premixed packets. The recipe on the back makes a huge portion, would serve maybe 6 people or more. We always cut the recipe in half and still have leftovers. Cooks up nice and the recipe on the back is perfect, we even add mushrooms or whatever veggies we have around.
