While rice is said to have come to Italy either from the Orient or Arab nations, Italian rice and risotto is now an essential part of the Italian diet, especially in some northern regions where it is truly a pillar of Italian cooking.
Key rice growing regions in Italy have always been the Lomellina area in south-west Lombardy, around Candia Mortara and Robbio where, at the castle of Ludovico il Moro, cultivation began.
