I am vacationing in western Florida and having a dinner party this evening. Unfortunately San Giorgio products are unavailable in this area. There is a recipe on the back of the orzo box for Mediterranean orzo that is fabulous. I am desperately searching for that particular recipe, no deviations from the exact. Can anyone help me ?

Hi Melissa, not sure what you are asking for. Do you have the box of orzo or do you know the name of the brand of orzo? That would help. - RG

So y’all know, orzo cooks up great in the rice cooker as well as in a pot or pan.

Hi Shannon, didn’t know but it makes sense. Thanks for the tip. - RG

I also add some parsnips, garlic, fresh spices, onion and carrots to the stock water and don’t even have to peel anything but do clean it all along with celery. I put it all in a cooking bag with the chicken and it is sooooo good!

Orzo is a pasta, so you drain it. Just cook like regular pasta, enough water to cook and drain off excess. Hope this helps.

Just read this recipe sounds delicious… Only I will be replacing the tomatoes for broccoli as I do not like tomatoes. I can’t wait to try it!

Sounds like a great idea. Please let me know how it turns out for you. - RG
