Question 1

How many net carbs are in this?

Accepted Answer

1 go (Japanese rice measuring cup) is about 3/4 C US.  Normal carb for this is 37.1 g.  Their site says 1 go plus 75 g of mannan hikari is 27.6 g carb for total 150 g and that is why they say 33% calorie off.  I've tried this ratio and the rice comes out perfectly fluffy.  Mannanhikari is konjac ie what shirataki noodle and konnyaku is made from - konjac.  Some one thought no way to keep konjac dry and that is not so.  I purchase dried bundles of shirataki noodle from Japan to keep in the US.  Just boil in water and they become regular shirataki.  Because I don't see the exact carb amount of this (they are more concerned with kcal), you have to to do your own calculation for carb.  But if you can do 50% rice and 50% mananhikari, the carb should be lower than 20 g for 1 go rice.

Question 2

how to cook?

Accepted Answer

You can follow risotto recipe Italian style.
I cooked it with mushrooms, asparagus, different vegetable.
Recipe with mushrooms (there is a my picture):
1. to wash the rice
2. to cook the sauce mixing in a frying pan mushrooms, one piece of leef, green peas, olive oil, salt and after a while vegetale water
3. when the sauce is cooked, to add rice and if it needs some other vegetale water. Cook for 10/15 minutes
4. a sprinkling of pepper and parsley before serving.

Buon appetito!

Question 3

What are the ingredients, please?

Accepted Answer

Kojac and tapioca flour I think

Question 4

I would also like to know how to prepare lithe rice. to cook or not cook? how much water?  per little packet? i received it and couldn’t make out how

Accepted Answer

I prepare it just like regular rice.  I pour the little packet into my strainer, rinse it, then either mix it with an equal quantity of rice, or cook it alone.  I also use a measuring cup beforehand because I can never remember how much is in each packet - I want to say 1/3 cup, but again, measure it, then, use the correct amount of water (same ratio as rice.)
