Arborio is not in the rice family, it's a strychlide. Rounded grains are firm and creamy due to the high starch content.

It's used for Risotto.

Arborio: A round grain, starchy white rice, traditionally used to make the Italian dish risotto.

Arborio rice tends to be creamier then regular rice, not something you would want with chinese food for example.

Thanks, could I use Basmati rice instead of Arborio for Risotto?

-WOODZ (3Q / 0A) Sat Dec 22, 2007 12:22pm

Basmati has a nutty aroma and flavor that develops because it is often matured up to a year after harvesting. It is a long grain rice that stays fluffy and separate when cooked. It is mainly used in various Middle Eastern and Indian dishes
