    The Italian rice is not a commodity Paolo Carrà Chairman of the Board of Directors Ente Nazionale Risi Brussels, 4 June 2018 Ente Nazionale Risi is a public Agency supervised by the Italian Ministry of Agriculture which aims to protect the national rice production. Italy is the first rice producer in the EU Italy 52.20% Spain 25.80% Portugal 6.97% Greece 5.49% France 4.66% Romania 2.44% Bulgaria 1.78% Hungary 0.66% The Italian rice production represents 0.2% of the world rice production The names of some rice varieties grown in Italy (e.g. Carnaroli, Arborio, Vialone nano) are as important as trademarks. The rice grown in EU has been recognized by the European Commission as a public good from the environmental point of view. The rice grown in EU is sustainable from the environmental point of view and it is healthy for consumers. The rice imported into the EU is not always healthy and environmentally friendly. Sometimes the Basmati rice imported into the EU contains the fungicide Carbendazim which is banned in EU. During 2006 traces of a variety of unapproved GM rice were found in imports into EU from USA. In Italy there is the collective brand «Riso Italiano» managed by Ente Nazionale Risi. This brand guarantees the origin, nature and quality of the rice sold by Italian operators. The brand «Riso Italiano» was a good answer to the issue of unapproved GM rice imported from USA. The European rice, in particular the Italian rice, is different from rice grown in the rest of the world because it is not a commodity.

  • Prodwrkshp 3.Qxd
    California Rice Production Workshop, v15 Variety Selection and Management Introduction and History Since its beginning in 1912, California’s rice industry limited its produc - tion and marketing largely to a few short and medium grain japonica varieties, developed from stocks originating in Japan and China. These varieties produced good yields of quality rice in the dry, temperate cli - mate of the Sacramento and San Joaquin Valleys. For the grower, the choice of variety to plant was relatively simple because the few varieties available were similar in performance, yield potential and milling qual - ity when properly managed. Included were Colusa, Caloro and Calrose released in 1918, 1921 and 1948, respectively, and Earlirose, a productive, early maturing, proprietary variety, released in 1965 which soon became a popular variety for cold areas and/or late plantings. These were the major rice varieties grown in California until the early 1970’s. Then, the variety picture began to change significantly. A powerful impetus for this was the enactment of California Rice Research Marketing Order that established the California Rice Research Board in 1969. This grower initiative provided significant and regular funding to hasten development and release of new varieties. The medium grain variety CS-M3 was released in 1970 and the short grain variety CS-S4 in 1971, from rice hybridizations made in 1946 and 1957 at the Rice Experiment Station (RES) at Biggs, CA. CS-M3 gained wide acceptance and competed with the older Calrose for acreage. But, CS-S4, though an improvement over Caloro, was not widely grown because of its suscep - Publicly devel - tibility to low temperature induced sterility.

  • Una Vastissima Selezione Di Risi Per Un Successo Ancora Più Grande
    Una vastissima selezione di Risi per un successo ancora più grande. La nostra Storia La Riseria Pasini è stata fondata nel lontano 1948 a Villa Garibaldi di Roncoferraro, paese tra le risaie del mantovano, nel cuore della Pianura Padana, terra in cui per tradizione da secoli viene coltivato il riso. Alla luce dei continui investimenti oggi l’azienda si sviluppa su una superficie coperta di 5.000 metri quadrati. Il numero elevato di macchinari altamente automatizzati consente di raffinare fino a 28.000 t di risone all’anno. La grande capa- cità di stoccaggio (2.700 t) permette di sopperire ad eventuali inconvenienti nell’approvvigionamento delle materie pri- me. L’impianto completamente rinnovato nelle selezionatrici ottiche, metal detector, aspirazioni per il trattamento delle polveri consente di selezionare un prodotto finale di altissima qualità. Forte di 5 recentissime linee di confezionamento integrate e automatizzate, l’azienda è in grado di proporre una gamma completa di prodotti confezionati nei più dispa- rati formati: astuccio sottovuoto, sottovuoto senza astuccio, sacchetti da 500 g, 1, 2 e 5 kg, sacchi da 25 kg, big bag da 1000 kg. Nell’Ottobre del 2015 è stato installato il nuovo impianto di sterilizzazione, tra i pochi al mondo, che consente di distruggere le uova microscopiche incluse nei chicchi di riso, annullando pertanto la possibilità di infestazioni che sono solite manifestarsi nei periodi più caldi. Dopo anni di ricerca e sviluppo siamo orgogliosi di presentare una nuova linea di prodotti che risponde alle esigenze di una parte di consumatori che cresce di giorno in giorno, coniugando la salubrità del prodotto alla sua conservazione nel tempo.

  • These Are Extracts from One Student's Response Risotto Is A
    Student 1: Low Excellence Low Excellence Please note – These are extracts from one student’s response Risotto is a traditional Italian meal. The main ingredient in risotto is rice which is a staple food grown in Northern Italy. The history of rice growing in Italy dates back to when the crusaders ventured east and returned with knowledge of how to cultivate or grow rice. It was quickly discovered that the humidity and weather in the Mediterranean was perfect for the optimum growth of short grain rice. The traditional method of cooking risotto is to fry off garlic and onion in a pan with olive oil and either Vialone Nano, Carnaroli and Arborio rice. Then white wine is added. When the alcohol has evaporated, heated homemade stock is added one ladle full at a time until complete absorption occurs. Once the rice is al dente (perfectly cooked), it is served in a bowl topped with parmesan cheese. Italy’s creation of risotto has influenced the world and different companies to make products that make risotto making easier and less time consuming for the consumer. Some of the products are premade stocks, parboiled rice and heat and eat risottos. Jamie Oliver, the chef and other cooking appliance companies sell risotto pans. A risotto pan is a wide based pot 1 which allows heat, flavours and liquids to be evenly distributed through the rice, resulting in a perfect risotto. All of these products make it easier to make a more authentic risotto for those who don’t have time to make their own or buy expensive ingredients.

    ADVENTURES CLUB by Anthony Lynch • SEPTEMBER 2018 2017 BARDOLINO “LE FONTANE” CORTE GARDONI Bardolino may not share the commercial popularity of Prosecco or the prestige of Amarone, but this Veneto red, hailing from the southeastern shores of Lake Garda, unde- niably offers value and drinkability that are difficult to top. The Piccoli family has been carrying the flag for Bardolino for decades now, since founder Gianni Piccoli staunchly took a stand against chemical farming and the influx of international grape varieties to his home turf in the early 1970s. Today, Gianni’s three sons carry on the tradition of bottling delicious, refreshing, affordable wines from local grapes—in the case of this red, Corvina and Rondinella. The fruit from their sustainably farmed vines ferments in stainless steel and goes into bottle early to capture maximum freshness. With an aroma that recalls sour cherry and a touch of black pepper, along with a bright, crunchy acidity, this juicy rosso is perfect for anytime quaffing. Just don’t forget to serve it slightly chilled. $14.00 per bottle $151.20 per case 2016 ÎLE DE BEAUTÉ ROUGE DOMAINE DE MARQUILIANI Corsica is also capable of producing chillable reds that offer unique flavors—this lively blend of Sciaccarellu, Grenache, and Syrah is a perfect example of such a style from the Île de Beauté. Vigneronne Anne Amalric of Domaine de Marquiliani, an old olive mill on Corsica’s east coast, specialized in rosé (and olive oil) until crafting her first red from the 2015 vintage. Her second effort has much in common with her delicate, ethereal rosés: both feature aromas of fresh berries and wild herbs, and both go down oh so smoothly.

  • A Classic Risotto Is a Rich, Creamy Dish with Nearly a Porridge-Like Consistency, Yet Each Grain of Rice Retains a Distinct Bite
    A classic risotto is a rich, creamy dish with nearly a porridge-like consistency, yet each grain of rice retains a distinct bite. In Italian risotto, the rice is parched as in the pilaf method, but the liquid is added and absorbed gradually while the grain is stirred almost constantly. The starch slowly releases during the cooking process, producing a creamy texture. risotto Grated cheese is often included, and vegetables, meats, or fi sh may be added to create a risotto that can be served as an appetizer or main course. Although risotto’s preparation is relatively lengthy and requires constant attention, there are ways to streamline the pro- cess, making it suitable for restaurant service. Risotto is traditionally made with special Italian varieties of medium-grain round rice. The best known of these is Arborio, but other varieties include Vialone Nano and Carn- aroli. Other grains, including other long-grain or brown rices, barley, wheat berries, or small pasta shapes, may also be prepared with this method, but the quality of the fi nished dish is not the same as a risotto made with an Italian medium-grain rice. The cooking time will be longer for brown rice and whole grains, and the amount of liquid required may be greater. The cooking liquid most often suggested for risotto is a high-quality stock or broth. Measure the appropriate quantity of stock or broth, season it if necessary, and bring to a simmer before starting to cook. Wine may replace a portion of the stock or broth in some recipes.
