The Revel Eats Arancini Bites were announced by Ajinomoto Foodservice as a convenient take on the classic Sicilian street food favorite to make it easier for operators to serve. The product is made with a blend of rice, mozzarella, tomato sauce and peas formed into spheres before being coated in breadcrumbs and fried to a golden perfection. The product comes in two flavors including Five Cheese and Mushroom Herb, which are both suitable for enjoyment as an appetizer, side dish or even a topper for salads and soups.
The Revel Eats Arancini Bites also come in a smaller bag size for easier storage and reduced waste, while also being suitable for customers with lacto-ovo vegetarian dietary requirements. The product is targeted towards casual operations, but also sports bars, brew pubs and more.
