It took me a really long time to taste the difference in rice grains from different regions but just like with coffee and many things, one type of rice is not the same as another.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA popular type of rice in Japan is called ‘Koshihikari’. It gained popularity as people became more interested in organic and healthy food, especially in Tokyo. This rice grain is fragrant, large, round and glistens. It is a bit sticky when cooked and the grains have a plump appearance. Yoshiki Tsukamoto of SKLO - who also designs light bulbs and has a love of antiques, go figure - owns a small family-run rice farm and produces this particular type of rice under the name SKURO. The farm uses no agricultural chemicals and only organic fertilizer. I tried all their varieties and it’s super safe to say that if there were such an award, SKURO rice would win grain of the year in my books.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e‘Koshihikari Brown Rice’ has many health benefits. It retains the outer bran hull that is usually milled away with white rice. This outer layer contains many nutrients, high amounts of fiber, vitamins and minerals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSKURO Koshihikari Brown Rice was curated by Angélique Chmielewski\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDesigner\/Maker \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMaker: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSklo\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDimensions: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2.3” (w) x 3.4” (l) x 7.0” (h) or 70mm (w) x 95mm (l) x 178mm (h)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e21 oz\u003c\/span\u003e or 600 g\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMaterials: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e100% Rice\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduced on a farm outside of Kanazawa, Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrown rice grains of the ‘Koshihikari’ variety\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEach bag contains 600g of rice grains\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApproximately 5 cups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e‘Koshihikari Brown Rice’ has a nutty flavour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade on a small family-run farm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo agricultural chemicals\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnly organic fertilizer used during farming\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoak brown rice for at least 2-3 hours prior to cooking\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCook rice with water at a 2:3 ratio for best results\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCook as you normally would cook brown rice in either a rice cooker or stovetop\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCan be used for porridges or as a side to a variety of dishes like stew or curry\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Sklo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45043009224755,"sku":"qxl1791815947044","price":11.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/2546\/6675\/files\/skuro-rice---koshihikari-brown_1.jpg?v=1791815952","url":"https:\/\/www.obsidianhaven.shop\/products\/skuro-rice-koshihikari-brown","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
