Rissoto
Chef Francesco AngeloVariety: Carnaroli 🌾
Risotto is the typical and exclusive cooking method of Italian cuisine, which has become a worldwide favorite. Its consistency varies according to regional tastes, but its preparation never changes: after sautéing briefly, add a hot broth. Another secret is to choose the right varieties: Carnaroli. Thanks to its high amylose content, this variety doesn’t overcook and the grain doesn’t fall apart.
Compact and light, soft but firm in the kitchen, intact but enveloped in the sauce, it really is the protagonist of risotto.

Chef Gil FernandesVariety: Ronaldo 🌾
As the name suggests, this grain has exceptional characteristics and qualities and is extremely well adapted to the climate of the Sado Valley.
With particular characteristics, such as an average size of 6mm and a broken grain rate of less than 0.5%, it releases the ideal amount of starch while maintaining its texture and consistency. With white, short and fat grains, cooked rice has an independent but creamy and velvety sauce. This type of rice is perfect for creamy rice recipes.
