Organic Vialone Nano rice - Campanini

Vialone Nano is a short-grain Italian rice known for soaking up flavor while staying slightly firm at the core. It’s often the choice for risottos with a luscious, creamy texture and subtle nuttiness. To bring out its best, toast the grains lightly in butter or olive oil before adding warm stock, stirring as it cooks to release its natural starch. It’s also excellent for arancini, soups, or any Italian-style rice dish that calls for richness and structure. Ingredients 100% organic Italian Vialone Nano rice About the producer: Riseria Campanini Northern Italy has been growing the world’s best risotto rice for centuries, and the fertile plains around Mantova are at the heart of that tradition. It’s here that the Campanini family have been selecting, milling, and packing 100% organic Italian rice for three generations, working with growers across Lombardy, Veneto, and Emilia to source the varieties each region grows best.  One detail we particularly like is how they handle traceability. Instead of mixing harvests together, Campanini stores paddy rice from each individual farm in separate silos, allowing every batch to be milled independently. That means more consistent cooking, complete traceability back to the farm (on the blockchain!), and rice that’s processed without chemical treatments while preserving the natural character of each variety. Pretty rare in the rice industry. The absolute peak choice for risotto, arancini, creamy rice puddings, minestrone / soups, or one-pot Italian rice dishes.
