While it might look like large-grained rice, risoni is a versatile and tragically overlooked (in our opinion) pasta shape. You might recall photos from the peak of COVID, showing supermarket pasta shelves stripped bare, with only poor risoni left behind.

Whether you want to create a hearty soup, a filling salad, or a comforting baked dish, risoni is your guy! It cooks quickly and absorbs flavours beautifully.

Don’t let risoni remain the unsung hero of your pantry! We'll show you our favourite ways to enjoy this tiny pasta - https://www.essentialingredient.com.au/blogs/news/cooking-with-risoni
