Yumenishiki is a short-grain sushi rice of the Japanese Koshihikari variety, grown in Northern Italy's mineral-rich soil under the supervision of Japanese rice farmers. The combination of Japanese know-how and Italian terroir produces a rice with natural sweetness, beautiful gloss and perfect stickiness – ideal for sushi and a wide range of Asian dishes. The large 10 kg bag ensures you always have quality rice in stock for both everyday meals and festive occasions.
For sushi: Fold the cooked rice with a mixture of rice vinegar, sugar and a little salt – or use ready-made “Sushi Mix”.
Yumenishiki sushi rice originates from the Japanese Koshihikari variety, which for decades has been among the most sought-after rices in Japan. To combine Japanese rice-cultivation know-how with Europe's climate, the variety is grown in Northern Italy, where mineral-rich soil and optimal growing conditions ensure consistent quality. Production takes place under the close supervision of Japanese rice growers, resulting in a rice that meets the high standards demanded by Japanese cuisine.
Yumenishiki rice is primarily ideal for sushi, where the right stickiness makes it easy to shape maki, nigiri and onigiri. It can also be used as a base in Japanese dishes such as donburi, katsu curry or as a side for grilled dishes and stir-fries. With its mild sweetness and full-bodied texture, it also works well in fusion dishes when you want a more authentic Japanese rice experience.
What makes Yumenishiki rice especially suitable for sushi?
