HOW TO COOK ORZO: RECIPE IDEAS FOR SALADS, PASTAS AND MORE

Orzo is a fun rice-shaped pasta that adds a nice twist to meals. It can be used to substitute just about any grain and makes a fun addition to pilaf and risotto-style dishes but it really shines when added to salads.

Fill up a pot with 4 liters of water

Cover, cook over high heat and bring to a boil

Drain and add to your desired dish
