Orzo

Orzo (lit. 'barley'; from Latin hordeum), also known in Italy as risoni ('large [grains of] rice'), is a form of short-cut pasta shaped like a large grain of rice. Orzo is made from flour, often with semolina. The name orzo is common for this pasta shape in North America, but less so in Italy, where the word usually means 'barley'.
