YUMENISHIKI Short Grain Rice 5 kg

Great tasting rice, great bag, it’s my favourite .. very short grain, easy to cook, very soft when cooked properly, best rice I’ve ever had

This is the best rice - as suggested by our Japanese friends. Have been using it for 10 years or so - well worth the extra money.

Good quality

I think this is the best value Japanese rice on Amazon. There are Italian alternatives that are good too, but I really wanted a Japanese one and this was cheaper. - You can make this in a non-stick pot very easily. Step 1: Use a small glass for one serving and pour rice into a non-stick saucepan. Step 2: Pour cold water over the rice and stir well with a large wooden spoon, then pour off the starchy, cloudy water (do this at least twice to wash the rice) Step 3: Use the same small glass to measure the amount of water to add to the rice (ratio 1:1 rice to water). Put the lid on. NOTE: KEEP the lid on UNTIL THE END, DO NOT REMOVE! Step 4: Let the rice sit in the cold water for 10 mins Step 5: Put the pot on a high heat until it boils, then turn the heat down so it doesn't overflow (for 12-15 mins) Step 6: Remove from heat and let it sit for 10 mins Step 7: Finally remove the lid and ENJOY some awesome Japanese sticky, fluffy, delicious rice. 10/10

I've been getting this rice for a while now and so far it's been good but received a delivery today and unfortunately the majority of the rice is in the delivery bag. Every order previously has come well packaged and in a cardboard box. The price of the rice has increased and quality of delivery has dropped unfortunately and no option to contact seller to ask any questions. Shame really coz as I said up until now I've been pleased.

Tastes close to authentic Japanese rice! It is initially from Italy, but it’s the best one I can get around here. I recommend giving it a try if you like short grain rice. I cook it in the rice cooker, and it tastes great! It’s important to firstly wash the rice, then leave the grains in the water for 15~30 minutes. Add a tiny bit more water than what the rice cooker suggests, then viola! Once it’s done, it’s best to mix the rice to make it fluffier.

This is my favorite rice in UK, best!!! I've finished 5kg and this is a whole new bag. love it.

This is a good find! Very nice taste! As a Japanese person, I eat rice everyday so rice goes away very quickly. 5k is very good as it lasts about 2-3months for two person. I used to buy 1k for £2 Japanese rice from a local shop but I got tired of buying them so many times in a month so I decided to try this. It’s always handy that Amazon delivers this kind of heavy products to your home. Very fast delivery! This is my 2nd order and I will order again.
