Great tast and flavour. - I now have this on a regular subscription because it is our family's absolute favourite kind of short grain rice. Buying in a large quantity is such good value for this type of premium product. We have found the quality to be consistent across several large bags of rice, with little dust or grit at the bottom of the bag. The texture and flavour is delicate but so tasty, and is just as good hot as it is cold - not just for sushi! We particularly like it with a coconut milk based curry. It also makes a cracking old fashioned rice pudding, so is quite versatile. Review: Great Value Sushi Rice – Perfect for Home Sushi Nights - I bought this 5kg bag of Emma Basic Koshi Sushi Rice for a few homemade sushi nights, and it’s been a great choice overall. Pros: Great texture: The rice cooks up nice and sticky, just like you want for sushi. It holds together well without being too mushy. Good quality: It’s consistent in texture and flavour—perfect for sushi or even just rice bowls and side dishes. Large quantity: The 5kg bag lasts a while, which is great if you make sushi often or need rice for big meals. Affordable: For the quality and quantity, this is a pretty budget-friendly option compared to other sushi rice brands. Cons: Takes some practice: Like any sushi rice, you’ll need to get the cooking technique right (soaking, rinsing, etc.) to get the perfect results. Not pre-seasoned: Some might prefer rice that’s already seasoned with vinegar, sugar, and salt, but that’s easy to do yourself. Overall, a solid, reliable sushi rice that delivers on both quality and value. Great for anyone who makes sushi at home regularly! ## Features - SUPERIOR GRADE — AWARD-WINNING FLAVOUR: All short-grain rice can be used for sushi, but quality varies greatly. Most short-grain rice found in the UK and Europe is Originario (from China) or Selenio (an Italian variety) grown in Northern Italy, both similar in profile to Japonica rice. Emma Basic’s authentic Japonica variety, cultivated in Vietnam, delivers a distinctly superior taste and texture — a quality recognised with the prestigious 2025 Great Taste 3-Star Award. - PERFECT TEXTURE: Do you cook your pasta to Al dente? If yes, then this is the rice for you, sticky yet firm. This is curcial because the rice must hold its shape when forming sushi but still be soft and pleasant to eat . the righ balance of stickiness ensures it binds well to other sushi ingredients without being overly mushy or dry , delicious. Simply cook the rice and enjoy with a pinch of salt. - BEYOND SUSHI: In Emma's personal opinion, sushi is not a daily food in Japan. Sushi is for wedding, birthday, New Year eve etc. Rice is daily food. You don’t have to make sushi, simply cook rice it goes well with any vegetable, meat or fish. - RICH SOIL & WATER: Grown by farmers in the Mekong Delta, Vietnam: "The rice bowl of Vietnam region". The Delta's rich soil is ideally suited for growing rice. It provides the foundation to grow rice with consistency in texture and taste. - FAMILY SIZE: Not too big for families and not too small for restaurant professional kitchen. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0DG957VL2 | | Age Range Description | All ages | | Best Sellers Rank | 4,111 in Grocery ( See Top 100 in Grocery ) 10 in White Rice | | Brand | Emma Basic | | Brand Name | Emma Basic | | Coin Variety 1 | Koshi Rice | | Container Type | Bag | | Country of Origin | United Kingdom | | Cuisine | Asian | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 175 Reviews | | Diet Type | Vegan, Vegetarian | | Item Length Description | Short | | Item Package Quantity | 1 | | Item Package Weight | 5.05 Kilograms | | Item Weight | 5 Kilograms | | Item package quantity | 1 | | Item weight | 5 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Emma Basic | | Manufacturer Contact Information | Emma Basic, 18 Platt Street, London, NW1 1RP, United Kingdom | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of items | 1 | | Part Number | V102 | | Product Shelf Life | 550 Days | | Protein | 5.8 g | | Region of Origin | Mekong Delta | | Serving Range | 50 servings | | Shelf life | 550 Days | | Size | 5kg | | Specialty | Japonica Rice, Koshi Rice, Sushi Rice | | Unit Count | 5000.0 gram | | Unit count | 5000.0 gram | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Emma Basic - **Item package quantity:** 1 - **Item weight:** 5 Kilograms - **Number of items:** 1 - **Unit count:** 5000.0 gram ## Images ![Emma Basic - Koshi Haruki Sushi Rice 5kg | Superior Grade | Gluten Free | Sticky | Perfect for sushi rice, and everyday Asian cooking - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71d1BQzvibL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reliably good quality, almost no dust or grit at the bottom of the bag.
