RICE CONES FOR ALL
My Dad got arancini for take away and told us that they were the best arancini ever. I must admit that they were really good. I loved how the rice had a nice mix of sauce and parmesan cheese in it. I can't stand when the rice is just white and dry. There was also a lot of meat inside as well as peas, mozzarella and egg. It's so nice to have a consistent flavorful bite every single time and not just a mouth full of rice like in America.
I must also warn you that rice balls in Sicily are not balls but cones. I believe they are like this because it makes them easier to eat as you walk down the street. I'm use to the cones because that is how everyone in my family has always made them.
Modica has some great street food and arancini is one of them. The best part is that you can walk around and order one at a time at several locations until you find the one that you love. This place is a great place to start your rice ball adventure. read more
