  1. Where do you buy arborio rice? Is this a speciality type rice or can you get it at Walmart or Kroger? Can you use other types of rice? TY

    1. Hi Anne, you should be able to find arborio rice at both Walmart and Kroger. It’s a “speciality” rice but a common one. If you are going to truly make Risotto, you need arborio rice. Any other rice won’t be as creamy. Enjoy!
