Rice is probably the most important product of Japanese cuisine and is often the main ingredient of Japanese dishes among which various sushi and rolls are, of course, the most popular. Not any type of rice is suitable for sushi. Japanese sushi chefs use a special type of rice with a higher content of starch which prevents this white smooth round-grain rice from becoming fluffy and makes it easy to form balls. If you have chosen the right rice for sushi, you are halfway to success as the quality of rice is what the taste and look of the exquisite dish depend on.

Sen Soy Premium Sushi Rice is the best Japanese rice used for sushi – KOSHI HIKARI, AKITA KOMACHI and FUSHIGON. These sorts are specially grown for sushi and Japanese sushi chefs believe that the rice meets their highest requirements. It is recommended that rice is boiled in a pot with a thick bottom and a dense anti-stick coating. When rice is ready, some special rice vinegar is added to it (such as Sen Soy Premium sushi rice vinegar). With the vinegar the rice acquires some special savors and becomes suppler and keeps its shape better.
