What is Reddit's opinion of Shirakiku Dried Grains & Rice - Japanese Short Grain White Koshihikari Rice - Uncooked Premium Quality Low Carb Sweet Sticky Sushi Rice, 15 Pounds bag?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

I understand the confusion too. It's a special in the sense that even if it's rice cultivated in California or Italy, the packaging is clearly aimed at Japanese people, even written 90% in japanese in some cases (Ican't imagine normal people thinking it's actually locally produced).

This link I posted somewhere else in the thread is a good illustration of that.

I live in France and buy mine from a Korean shop, and they have Korean strains as well, but there's zero effort to sell to the average client. People like me just go every odd week to a corner of the shop, take 2 or 3 bags of 10kg each and pony up the money.

Oh sure:

• the rice: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0093ZTUEA/
• the vinegar https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KO3CKTC/
• kelp: I just got a bag of kelp from H mart
• the rice cooker: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B016Y8JS4K/ I would get the bigger size.
• the actual recipe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26sELiYiK70

You need to:

1. watch the video a few times to get all the nuisances
2. VERY important is the motions when mixing the sushi vinegar into the rice (cutting it). This is what I was doing wring for a long time
3. you need to just make the rice over and over, like I said it took me about 6 months of making rice 2-3 times a month to get it right

Also

• Soy sauce: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0036TFXY0/
• Wasabi: I get the freshly grated one from Osakana. Nothing else would compare.

Enjoy it!

It’s definitely good rice, but for my taste buds, it doesn’t hold a candle to Shirakiku’s Koshihikari rice: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0093ZTUEA/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_7XZSX01ANHYWA6AXWMD9

Yeah, but Arkansas grows mostly long grain rice, California grows Calrose, Shirakiku, Koshihikari, etc. An example is below.

If you like this recipe I recommend checking this vídeo out, it’s where I got the idea from.

And for the rice I use this brand. It’s really pricey but I really like it, hence why i get 15 pounds. From what I understand is legit good quality Japanese rice. But I’d be open on hearing cheaper alternatives.

This is my favorite Japanese rice to buy.

I also enjoy this rice (which is actually a medium grain).
