Sushi rice is a key component of any sushi creation. The shiny, slightly sweet round grain rice is characterized by its special texture and characteristic taste. The rice grains are carefully ground and polished after harvesting to ensure the ideal texture for different sushi creations.

Perfect texture for sushi

This rice is known for its slightly sticky texture due to its relatively high starch content. This characteristic makes it the ideal choice for making sushi. The sticky texture allows the sushi rice grains to stick together and keep the various ingredients in the sushi rolls safe.

Versatile: sushi rice as a side dish

However, this rice is not just limited to sushi. Whether as a base for nigiri, maki or sashimi rolls or as a side dish for fish and vegetable creations – it is versatile and enriches any menu.
