Shinmei Toyama Milky Queen Rice, 2 Kg

Delicious fluffy rice that melts in the mouth with a rich flavour.

When you're looking for a sweet and sticky rice that's ideal for making several of your favourite Japanese dishes, Milky Queen rice sits at the throne of your staple grain needs.

Cultivated among the complex network of floodplains at the foot of Toyama prefecture's mountain range, the soil remains rich and high and moisture allowing the regular Koshihikari rice they grow to develop a looser starch that creates this extra glutinous, extra rich crop of rice.

Keeping its mouth-watering stickiness even when cooled after cooking, this rice gently shines in a translucent creamy look, giving it the Milky Queen name. Ideal rice for bento and onigiri or wonderful as a side dish with your main meal.
