From the 17th century until now, after a century of total abandonment, the historic family Casale in the Piedmont rice growing region with its gorgeous frescoes is fully restored. And with that just a decade ago an exquisite line of gourmet rice was born, Riso Buono, thanks to the creativity and ingenuity of daughter-in-law Cristina Brizzolari. It's not your ordinary carnaroli risotto rice but the one chosen and prized by chefs: Carnaroli Classico Gran Riserva. Tune in to learn all about the history and background of this fabulous rice, and the other delicious rice variety grown at Riso Buono, Artemide.
