The Hana Echizen variety is a descendant of Koshihikari. It has inherited its sticky and shiny appearance. Its bouncy, tender, and slightly sticky texture makes it perfectly suited for cold preparations such as bento, onigiri, or sushi. Hana Echizen is a round rice with a mild, slightly sweet, and delicate flavor. Its name comes from the fact that it blooms faster than Koshihikari, giving it a better yield. This characteristic, along with its ability to withstand cold and its good taste, makes it a rice highly appreciated by the Japanese, especially in Fukui Prefecture, where it is commonly served in schools.

Instructions

300 g of rice for 2 to 4 people: wash the rice by hand 3 times in water, then rinse it until the water runs clear. Place the rice in a saucepan, add 430 ml of water, and let it rest for 30 minutes. Cover the saucepan and heat over medium heat until boiling. Reduce the heat and cook for 10 minutes without removing the lid. Turn off the heat and let it rest for another 10 minutes, still covered. Gently stir the rice before serving.
