If Koshihikari is considered the king of rices, then Milky Queen is the queen! This Koshihikari-derived variety has become popular because of its low amylose content, which makes it softer than other rices. What's more, it retains its texture even when cold, making it ideal for onigiri, bentos, sushi and other cold rice dishes. The Japanese generally eat it mixed with white rice in a ratio of 1/3. Its name comes from its slightly milky appearance when cooked, and its taste is similar to that of Koshihikari.
It is grown in Toyama prefecture by Nanohana, a company specializing in rice production. Black rice is also grown in this prefecture, renowned for the quality of its rice. The region's plains are irrigated by snowmelt from Mount Hida, also known as the "Northern Alps". With its fertile, nutrient-rich soils, this region is particularly well-suited to rice cultivation.

The star of Japanese rice!

A rice of incredible quality and flavor. Ideal to accompany any fish dish, or to eat as is, with a little seasoning.

An exceptional rice!

I always choose my ingredients carefully - especially when it comes to rice.
This Milky Queen was a natural choice, ideal for onigiri, chirashi or even a simple bowl of shio gohan - hot rice, just seasoned with salt and a dash of sesame.

I also use it in a dashi-parmesan risotto, where its ability to absorb flavors without collapsing makes it an unexpected but remarkable ally.
