I Sushi Premium Sushi Rice 5kg

It's not sushi rice, but it's a very high quality sticky rice. And at a very good price. High quality proper sushi rice goes £30/5kg, so naturally this is not sushi rice, the branding in English is called i Sushi Premium for some reason but not in Chinese... Might be a bad translation.The rice, properly cooked is fluffy and sweet. Has a very soft texture and cooks as new rice, not old. At least all the batches I got. I used to buy another brand but I'm staying with this one for the time being.

Lovely rounded pearls of short grain rice, not as glutinous as some brands but good enough for sushi and bento boxes aplenty

Good product

Reviewed September 2024:Considering the price, this is very good value. There are better options out there, but when they cost 3 times the price, this is excellent value.For reference, I do get to Japan for work a couple of times a year, and I do come home with rice from the super market, so we're spoilt a little, but this is fine when we've ran out (we get through about 30 kgs of rice a year)We cook this with a rice cooker, and use it as 'day to day' rice, we have not made sushi with it, and its unlikely we ever will.We noticed that the grains are on the smaller size compared to some other options, and there seemed to be a lot of broken grains also.It needs a good wash before cooking, and its better with a mix of about 1 1/4-1 1/2 parts water to one part rice.It tastes fine, even my (very) fussy wife doesn't mind it, although it doesn't seem particularly sticky for sushi (although we've not cooled it and mixed it with rice vinegar, which might change the consistency).

Favourite sushi rice, easy to cook and tastes amazing 😊

Nice rice

Definitely saved me a bunch of money. Quality is good and it costs me mich less this way than constantly buying a small bag at the store. Would recommend

Perfect for sushi and great value
