Shinmei Akita Komachi Premium White Rice 2kg

Akita Komachi is one of Japan's most well-regarded everyday rice varieties — grown in Akita Prefecture, a region whose combination of cold winters, abundant snowmelt water and fertile soil produces grain with a distinctive clean sweetness and a soft, slightly sticky texture that holds together well whether served plain, as onigiri, or alongside a full Japanese meal. Shinmei is one of Japan's leading rice brands, with a long track record in sourcing and milling quality Japanese rice, and this 2kg bag of polished Akita Komachi is a reliable everyday staple that performs consistently from bowl to bowl. It cooks to a glossy, well-rounded finish and stays tender even as it cools, making it well suited to bento boxes and onigiri as well as a freshly steamed bowl at the table.
