ShirakikuDried Grains & Rice - Japanese Short Grain White Koshihikari - Uncooked Premium Quality Low Carb Sweet Sticky Sushi Rice, 15 Pounds bag

Love love love this rice. I cook it in Zorushi rice cooker on white rice setting after rinsing and it’s perfect every time. Great taste, texture, Aroma, good value and highly recommended if you like sticky rice. I tried sushi rice setting a couple of times and comes out great.

This is easily the highest quality rice I’ve ever had! When you wash this rice properly, soak it for 20-30 mins, and use a rice cooker it comes out perfect every time. I’ve never really liked rice, and living in Louisiana, there are a lot of dishes with rice, after I tried this though I can’t get enough! I can easily eat this rice by itself since there is no off flavors from the additives that American rice has. I DEFINITELY recommend this rice, and can’t wait to buy it again!

This is hands down my favorite rice. It has so much flavor, and the texture is perfect for sushi, a poke bowl, or even just an over easy egg. Delightful and fluffy, it's the best!

Just made my first pot of this delicious rice after receiving it as the reviews were so good. I can’t believe I’ve lived my whole life without having this amazing rice. I brought it after reading thousands of reviews looking for the perfect rice for Gimbap. This rice is so flavorful, firm and sticky at the same time. Made perfect Gimbap and it was my first time making Gimbap. Thanks Aaron and Claire🥰 I put a little Korean toasted sesame oil in with the salt and let soak for 30 mins before cooking in my Japanese rice cooker, “zujiruski” on sushi. The rice was slightly sweet, and flavorful right out of the pot all by itself. Worth every penny. I will always buy this rice going forward. Ten stars!! NO BUGS! Tightly sealed and the bag of rice was then placed inside a heavy plastic bag, sealed, then placed in a box for shipping.

absolutely delicious rice! just use 1:1 ratio (rice to water) - this is the right ratio every time. you can see every cooked rice grain and not mushy at all if you use the correct ratio - a little expensive but absolutely worth it if you eat rice every day!

This Sacramento CA valley grown short grain Japanese rice is good as you can get with consistency without buying those grown in Japan. The best rice is what is known as new rice harvested in the Fall months. They produce the softest and tastiest rice prized in Japan. In Japan, it is labeled as such but in the US, it is hard to know when harvested. My rice purchased in September 2024 showed expiration of May 2026. I wish American grown rice shows harvested date too. I once purchased Nishki rice bought in California that I knew immediately it was Fall harvested rice because of soft rice texture and superior taste. It was purchased in January. Pure chance but I may have gotten lucky and was able to buy the new rice of the season. The color of onigiri shown in my photo is from several ingredients which darkened the rice to mimic Japanese Family Mart conbini tuna onigiri. Makes great tasting onigiri. I make in batches and freeze in portions. When ready to eat microwave on power level 6 until warmed through.

I challenged myself to cook Chinese food in 2024. This imported rice from Japan is BEST with Pad Thai, Orange Chicken, and is so delicious when I fry it, i.e., chicken fried rice. It's not mushy when I use sesame oil.

Got my first bag and it says new crop which is nice. Tastes great. I plan on getting more when I’m done with this one. Will have to see if quality still holds up further away from harvest season
