I have found my rice passion: sushi rice. Here's why:
1. I've burned my fair share of pots of rice. But this stuff, it doesn't burn. It just won't.
2. The grains are small, and when it's cooked just right (about 15 minutes), it comes out so fluffy and a bit sticky. And I love rice that seems to cook itself in to a giant monolithic rice pallet.
3. It's great with anything. Mexican, stir fry, and it just dawned on me that it's probably amazing for rice pudding. I'll get back to you on that.

PS: I get my sushi rice at the trusty Cash Grocer natural foods store in Old Town Alexandria.

I have never heard of sushi rice, and I am inclined to believe that you are making it up.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds tasty, and I would be interested in trying it, but still- I don't trust you.
