Arborio rice

An Italian short-grain rice. It is named after the town of Arborio, in the Po Valley,
where it is grown.

When cooked, the rounded grains are firm, creamy, and chewy, due to its higher amylopectin starch content, thus it has a starchy taste but blends well with other flavours.

It is used to make risotto, although Carnaroli and Vialone Nano are sometimes used to prepare the dish. Arborio rice is also used for rice pudding.

Empanada is made by folding a dough or bread patty around the stuffing. The stuffing can consist of a variety of meats, cheese, huitlacoche, vegetables or fruits among others.
 
Spätzle

(Swabian diminutive of Spatz, thus literally "little sparrow", also Spätzli or Chnöpfli in
Switzerland or Knöpfle or Hungarian nokedli) are a type of egg noodle of soft texture
found in the cuisine of Germany and of Austria, Switzerland, Hungary, Alsace and South Tyrol.

The geographic origin of spätzle is not precisely known; various regions claim to be the originators of this noodle. Written mention of Spätzle has been found in documents dating from 1725, although medieval illustrations are believed to place this noodle at an even earlier date.

Today, in Europe spätzle are largely considered a "Swabian speciality" and are generally associated with the German states of Baden-Württemberg and Bavaria. The leading German producer is Herrman, which produces approximately 13,000 tons per year.

The estimated annual commercial production of spätzle in Germany is approximately 40,000 tons, which does not include spätzle made by individual households and restaurants. Pre-made spätzle are also available internationally from companies such as Maggi, a division of Nestlé.
