Product detailed description

Toyama Koshihikari Rice 5kg represents the pinnacle of Japanese rice cultivation. Toyama Prefecture, nestled between the Tateyama mountain range and the Sea of Japan, benefits from mineral-rich water sources (melted snow) and temperature extremes that are ideal for growing top-tier Koshihikari.

This rice is celebrated for its supreme balance of flavor, aroma, and texture. When served warm, it releases a beautiful fragrance and exhibits a desirable stickiness that allows it to cling together without being mushy. The 5kg package is a perfect size for families who appreciate the consistent quality and flavor that comes with one of Japan's most celebrated rice origins.

 

Suggested Use

 

  • Plain Steamed Rice: The best way to enjoy its flavor is simply as plain white rice (白米) alongside any meal.

  • Sushi Rice: Its high stickiness and excellent flavor make it suitable for making high-quality sushi rice.

  • Donburi/Curry: Its strong flavor holds up well against rich sauces and toppings in dishes like Katsudon or Japanese Curry.
