What is an arancino
The arancino is one of the most beloved symbols of Sicilian culinary tradition, historically widespread also in Naples under the dialect name palle 'e riso. It is a breaded, golden-fried rice ball, here filled with a meat sauce. The San Giorgio 125 g version reproduces the classic recipe in a standardised, consistent format, designed for the professional kitchen that must guarantee the same quality at every service.
The producer San Giorgio
San Giorgio SpA is the Italian producer of this arancino, made in Italy to the traditional recipe and frozen to preserve its fragrance and structure. Choosing a specialised producer ensures a uniform piece size, a coating that stays crisp during cooking and a sauce filling dosed consistently in every single piece.
