Japanese Rice Koshihikari Toyama, 1 kg · Shinmei

Toyama Koshihikari is a high-quality Japanese rice of the Koshihikari variety, one of Japan's most beloved and well-known rice types. After cooking, the rice becomes soft, shiny, and perfectly sticky – sticky enough for sushi and onigiri, but still pleasant to eat in an everyday rice bowl.

The flavor is delicate and clean, with a subtle natural sweetness that pairs wonderfully with Japanese and Asian dishes. It is suitable for preparing homemade sushi, onigiri, bento, Japanese curry, donburi, chirashi, rice bowls with tofu, fish, vegetables, gyoza, or Japanese pickles.

The 1 kg package is convenient for home use, especially for those who want authentic Japanese rice in their pantry without committing to a large sack. It serves as a good base for more precise Japanese meals, where rice is not just a side dish – it is a central part of the meal.
