Review: Best rice for home cooking - Excellent flavor. Easy to prepare. It’s near sushi quality. I literally steam this and have a versatile base for almost any dish. It’s a medium sticky rice and not highly gummy like higher gluten rice. I would suggest this for any kitchen or cuisine. A must have stable in any kitchen. Use with kimchi, chicken, pork, beef, sushi, pickled veggies. Really the best I have tasted. Pricing is also a bargain compared to h mart or other grocery stores.
Review: Our household staple — best rice and great value! - Nishiki is our go-to rice and we buy it in the 15 lb bag because we go through it so fast! The medium grain texture is perfect — it cooks up fluffy and slightly sticky, which is exactly what we want for everyday meals, sushi, and rice bowls. The quality is consistently excellent and the price on desertcart is very reasonable for this quantity. We've ordered this multiple times and will absolutely keep buying it!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: if you cook the whole bag how many gallons of rice would you have? looking to fill a bath tub.**
A: Earlier someone said that 15 pounds of rice will make 69.78 cups of rice.  16 cups in a gallon so 4.36 gallons of rice per back.  Google says a bathtub holds at least 35 gallons so 8-10 bags oughta do it.

**Q: Is this a high glutinous rice used to make fermented rice wine?**
A: No. This is a polished, medium grain sticky rice. This is for using as a rice to be served as a side with a meal. Because this is a sticky rice it will be easier to eat with Japanese style chopsticks. You need to look for a glutinous sweet rice for what you want to do.

**Q: where is product grown?  Thank you.**
A: I have a bag, and it says "Product of USA". Yet the distributor JFC international, distributes products from Japan and Asia.  I haven't found where it says this rice is grown in California. However California is the 2nd largest producer of rice ,next to Arkansas, in the United States.

**Q: What Type Is This?**
A: It is a medium white rice. You have to cook it. It is not A quick/minute rice. It is a sticky rice. Where it was grown should be on the products Amazon page.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great quality, versatility & price
*by M***E on January 27, 2026*

My husband was always looking for medium grain rice in local stores. When he would find it he considered it way over priced. Then I found this on Amazon and put in for subscribe and save. The price comparison to local stores was very well in favor of this. It's good quality, cooks well, my daughter has a way that makes it more sticky for her liking, so it's versatile. I like the overall taste and so do they. I won't unsubscribe, ever!
