Sasanishiki Super Premium Short Grain Rice, 10kg - Japanese-Style Rice for Sushi & Onigiri - Allergen-Free, Light Texture, Fluffy Finish - Ideal for Traditional Japanese Dishes

Not sure what all the fuss is about, this is a good quality short grain rice. Perhaps not the best for sushi, but excellent with asian curries and great for most of your short grain needs. It does require a good few wash & rinses however, it is sticky enough after being washed it would probably be like mochi without. The natural taste of the rice is pleasant but nothing overwhelming or stand out, but a step above using the wrong type of rice for a dish. At its price point its a great and affordable way to have high quality rice on the table that you are likely to buy again!

Very good price, even better than I go to Asian cash& carry. We always buy this rice, like the taste. It is very great to make steam rice, sushi and porridge.

I purchased this on sale for about 23 or 24 pounds it's good rice . I cooked several different Japanese style rice in the past but non of rice bought here wasn't smelled like Japanese original rice when it's on the cooker. But this sasanishiki rice grew in north Thailand smelled close to Japanese grown rice when I was cooking. I cooked it and made sushi or other simple Japanese food it's good. I can not afford original imported Japanese rice but this is 👍 excellent for the price. Sasanishiki is good type of rice for sushi.

I love the soft taste that short grain rice brings. It has a good scent of rice.

Excellent value for money. Very fluffy rice. Rinse thoroughly, leave stand for half hr to an hr in cold water then cook it in a rice cooker. Excellent for onigiri or just plain.

A really good rice! Relatively consistent grains, almost no darker grains showing spoilage, really happy with this given the price. It does have an odd, corn like smell however.

Eatable just after boiled but not that tasty. I prefer Haruka rice to Yutaka anyway.

My Taiwanese wife and I like good rice. With shipping costs so high at the moment, it's difficult to find decent rice at a reasonable price. I get a bit frustrated with these attempts to make their rice look Japanese. Sure it's a Japanese rice variety, but it's grown in Thailand. Sticking it in a fancy bag and writing 'super premium' on it does not make it high quality Japanese rice. And this isn't. It's okay. It's still streets ahead of British supermarket rice and the boil-in-the-bag variety, but it's not a patch on actually-grown-in-Japan Japanese rice. The price is okay, compared to other rices at the moment, but it's just not impressive. My wife judged it to be "the kind of rice you'd expect in a Chinese restaurant in the UK." And I have to agree with that. It's fine, but it won't impress you.
