File this one under the "who-bloody-knew-but-obvious-in-retrospect"-category!
Turns out that "sushi rice" makes a more than excellent substitute for the arborio, or carnaroli in a classic risotto.
In fact, both rices belong to the same japonica family, the key characteristic of which is that they are glutinous (= starchy, sticky) and not "long-grained" like basmati.
Smack to the forehead, deliciousness for dinner.
