Hitomebore Sushi Rice, Premium Short Grain Sticky Rice from Miyagi, Japan; Vacuum-Sealed, Ideal for Sushi, Onigiri, Bento and Japanese Cooking (4.5kg)

DISCOVER THE ULTIMATE SUSHI RICE EXPERIENCE Indulge in the exquisite taste of our premium Sushi Rice, sourced directly from the renowned Osaki Koudo region in Miyagi, Japan. This area is celebrated for its exceptional agricultural practices centred on rice, recognized by the UN as a Globally Important Agricultural Heritage System. With over 400 years of rice cultivation expertise, our japonica rice embodies the rich heritage and excellent quality that Japanese rice is known for. Our premium rice is not just any rice; it’s a culinary masterpiece. The Hitomebore variety, which translates to "fall in love at first sight," lives up to its name with every grain. Unlike non-Japanese sushi rice, our Japanese rice maintains its delicious flavour and chewy, mochi-like texture even when cooled down, thanks to its low amylose level. This makes it perfect for sushi, rice balls, and bento boxes. Additionally, its versatility shines in various dishes such as stir-fries, curries, and traditional Japanese cuisine. What sets our Sushi Rice apart is its vacuum-packed freshness. Rice taste deteriorates quickly once milled, but our vacuum packaging locks in the peak flavour and extends the shelf life, ensuring you enjoy the freshest Japanese rice possible. Many Japanese rice products skip this crucial step due to cost, but we’ve made it a priority to deliver best quality. Our short grain japonica rice is not only about taste but also about authenticity. Hitomebore is the most prevalent rice served in business settings across Japan; so if you have been to Japan, you may have had this already without knowing it. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to experience genuine Japanese rice!
