Cotto Italian Street Food has launched an Arancini Club. Arancini are golden, crispy Sicilian rice balls traditionally stuffed, breaded and fried.
“They’re comfort food with soul,” Cotto co-owner Sarah Fink told the Source. “Creamy risotto on the inside, an irresistible crunch on the outside, made for sharing, celebrating and savoring.”
For $20 a month, members will receive a 4-pack of hand-made cheese Arancini to heat at home anytime the mood strikes. It comes cooked and frozen and can be reheated in an oven or air fryer. The package includes marinara sauce and is gluten friendly.
Members pick up the rice balls at a specific time. This month, it’s Saturday, Dec. 20, between 2-5pm at Cotto’s food truck at The Podski on NW Arizona Avenue in Bend. Fink says they plan to make it a party with member perks such as free cannoli, a member discount at the Cotto cart and a dollar off drinks at The Podski during the event.
Fink says they’ll begin the Arancini Club with local members but plan to launch it nationally with a shipping option next year. Cotto is currently gathering a waitlist for those interested when that becomes available.
Fink says the Arancini Club is “designed for people who believe joy should always come in small, crispy spheres.”
