Mainly grown in central Tôhoku, this rice has a sweet, umami taste and a shiny appearance, making it very popular with the Japanese. It is a derivative of Koshihikari, created in 1984 in the Akita region. It has a mild, delicate flavor, with slightly sweet notes. Its texture is sticky and firmer than other rices, making it ideal for onigiris and donburis. We also love it pan-fried with vegetables, or as an accompaniment to meat and fish dishes. It goes well with all kinds of Japanese and Western flavors, creating tasty, well-balanced dishes.

More details on this product

Its name is inspired by Ono-Komachi, one of the 6 geniuses of poetry in Japan, once considered a symbol of beauty. She often appears on the packaging of this rice variety, which is why the Japanese nickname it "moe-mai" (cute rice).

300g rice for 2 to 4 people: hand-wash the rice 3 times with water, then rinse until the water runs clear. Place the rice in a saucepan, add 430ml of water and leave to stand for 30 minutes. Cover the pan and heat over medium heat until boiling. Lower the heat and cook for 10 minutes without removing the lid. Turn off the heat and leave to stand for a further 10 minutes, still with the lid on. Gently stir the rice before serving.

Store away from light, heat and moisture.
