⋅ A variety derived from Koshihikari rice
⋅ Grown in Italy
⋅ Taste and texture almost identical to koshihikari rice
⋅ Ideal for everyday use
⋅ As good hot as cold


This is a Japanese Koshihikari rice adapted to the European climate! It is harvested from rice fields in the Italian Alps. Its taste and texture are very similar to Koshihikari, making it a more ecological alternative to Japanese Koshihikari. Only the inedible outer shell has been removed: the bran and germ have been preserved to enhance its light hazelnut flavor and preserve its nutritional qualities. Koshihikari has a shiny appearance and an umami taste that doesn't fade during cooking, making it the ideal everyday rice to accompany a light tsukemono or raw fish dish.

More details on this product

Koshihikari rice is the result of crossing 2 rices that were widely cultivated during the war: Nôrin 22 and Nôrin 1. The aim was to combine the yield and taste of one with the resistance of the other. After several trials in Niigata prefecture, Ecchinan 17 rice was obtained and renamed Koshihikari. Renowned in Japan as the """"King of rices"""" for its good taste, yield and resistance to cold, Koshihikari rice is a relative of the vast majority of modern Japanese rices.

For this one, the importer JFC created it in order to produce a Koshihikari adapted to the European climate. I

Yumenishiki is a koshihikari rice grown in Italy using Japanese methods. Shiny grains, slightly sticky texture, balanced umami flavor: it's perfect for sushi, onigiri or everyday dishes. Japanese quality, produced locally in Europe.

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 600ml water and leave to stand for 1 hour. Cover the pan and heat over medium heat until boiling. Lower the heat and cook for 15 minutes without removing the lid. Turn off the heat and leave to stand for a further 20 minutes, still with the lid on. Stir the rice gently before serving.

Store away from light, heat and moisture.
