Fabulous rice, and worth spending the extra cash as it's miles apart from others

Brilliant rice when cooked so fluffy easy to cook the best. Great value too

Nice quality rice

I am of East Asian descent, so this is my everyday rice. It is of excellent quality. (I use a rice cooker but on occasion have made small quantity in pot- works well in either rice cooker or pot.) Some rice from other producers is unpleasantly starchy or has an odd texture; this product, if you put in the right amount of water, has a lovely firm but not hard texture. You ask about scent: this is not a 'jasmine rice' and is therefore not particularly scented but does give off the pleasing cooked rice smell.

It's not really what I hoped for, it's a bit too sticky even after thorough rinsing and soaking. Japanese rice are usually quite sticky, but this is even stickier. So it's probably great as sushi rice or other stuff where you need a lot of stickiness.It has a pretty good taste though, so it's not all bad. Perhaps if you mix it with some other rice like jasmine or basmati and lower the amount of water a bit more you'd get a less sticky rice.

Delicious rice! I haven't tasted rice this good since I lived in Japan. ONLY PROBLEM: you can't follow regular rice cooking instructions when using Japanese rice. Nishiki rice (and all Japanese rice) requires a different amount of water to cook in comparison to other types of rice such as, American long grain or basmati rice.If using a regular rice cooker, the ratio for this rice is one part rice, to 2 parts water. So if you want to cook 1 cup of nishiki rice, you'll need 2 cups of water.After washing rice thoroughly (I spend quite a long time washing my rice, emptying the water and repeating several times. This is what I was taught to do with the rice, when I lived in Japan. See videos for more info). Add salt, water, cook . It's delicious!! Enjoy!

Perfect rice for Japanese cooking including teriyaki and donburi. Haven't tried on sushi but should be fine as it is nice and sticky. Great value for money. The only thing is that we end up adding more water otherwise it sticks to the pan, so beware of that when cooking it.

I love Nishiki Rice because it’s easy to cook (using the rice function in my Instant Pot) and comes out perfectly each time. Pick this rice if you like your rice slightly sticky and I’ve used the rice for everything from sushi, rice balls and even rice patties (to use instead of burger buns). It’s also good for Japanese dishes such as Katsudon, which is usually served on slightly sticky rice and not long grain or basmati rice.
