Explore Cuisine is contributing to the growth of the alternative rice category with its Organic Risoni, also known as orzo, a single-ingredient rice-shaped pasta. In Italian, "riso" means "rice" and "oni" means "more than," and Explore Cuisine's new products certainly deliver more than regular rice by offering 12 to 13 grams of protein in just two ounces.
