Description

This is a remarkable recipe collection from a maestro of Italian cooking, featuring 100 authentic rice-focused dishes, along with techniques and equipment tips to help readers make perfect rice every time. Fascinating background about the distinct rice varieties, their characteristics, and where they can be purchased is also included. In addition, there is a guide to Italian pantry staples and a section on the labelling of Italian products to ensure they are authentic. The meticulously written recipes include both familiar dishes – arancini, crochettes, risotti, and rice puddings – and an array of unique offerings, such as rice salads, soups, fritters, bracioli, and gelatos. It is a definitive guide to the Italian rice repertoire.
