(15 Lbs) Tamaki Gold Rice California Koshihikari Short Grain

Great quality sushi rice, tried several store shelf ones, this is the best. Wash 3 times to remove the starch, cook on instant pot on rise setting, 10 min, 1.5 cups of rise + 1.5 cups of water.

Yep, I'm Asian. The average person would think, rice is rice, right? Not so!I've been on a mission for incredible rice. This just might be the best rice on the planet. Upon opening the nitrogen packed bag, I noticed a lovely truffle aroma from the rice. I had to try it right away and I was blown away at the texture and consistency of the rice. The cooked rice is unlike any I've ever tried. The rice does not glob together in one glutinous mass, but each grain is consistently perfect. Not a single broken grain. I would describe the texture of the rice as slightly firm, with a little bit of give. Just slightly "al dente" - like the perfect fresh pasta, you bite into it and it has just the right amount of firmness. I imagine this would be the most amazing rice for sushi, though I have not tried yet. I honestly could eat the rice all by itself with a little fish sauce and furikake. Yes, it's a bit pricey, but it's a small price to elevate your home culinary experience several notches. Do follow the instructions and rinse, rinse, rinse and when your cooker chimes that it's done, switch it off and let sit for 10 minutes. Open and fluff and leave for another 10 minutes... the process is actually quite important, I'm not just being pedantic, it's on the bag.Tamaki Gold is now my first choice for rice, despite the price. Life is too short to deny yourself little pleasures such as this! I put too much effort into my food to have "average" rice. I happily pay more for the best, and this is it.

Cooked Rice is sticky, works well for sushi rolls.

This is the only sushi rice i will buy!! And i use it for everything as a white rice. Even though it is slightly more expensive, it is so worth it to me for the taste! My partner who sometimes has issues digesting other white rices sees no stomach issues here. We have used this for homemade sushi, crispy rice, fried rice, burrito bowls, you name it we’ve done it and we love it.The grains have great quality

Thank you!

This is a rice we've been eating for several years. Since we no longer can get it locally, it's nice to have access to it through Amazon. The price is considerably higher, but the creamy rice is worth spending more!

My family absolutely loves this rice. When we visit friends and eat their rice, you can taste and see the difference! Tamaki Gold for life! :)

love it.
