Did you know?

Orzo is the Italian word for barley, though the pasta is made from wheat. Its grain-like shape makes it look a lot like rice, which is exactly why it works so well in one-pot dishes. Unlike regular pasta which sits in a sauce, orzo absorbs the liquid it cooks in, building a dish that is thick, cohesive and full of flavour throughout.
