Mother's Market Kinsho Rice Packs

All fans of Japanese cuisine know that its basis is the glutinous, polished rice synonymous with a meal (literally: the word "gohan" means both "rice" and "meal"). But among younger, more health-conscious Japanese, there's a rising trend to replace the omnipresent gohan with brown (unpolished) rice because of its higher nutritional value, and especially dietary fiber and vitamins E and B. The Mother's Market Kinsho Rice Packs offers that and more, since it contains both brown and black rice.

Available in packs of 12 or 24, the Mother's Market Kinsho Rice Packs are a perfect balance between regular rice and unpolished so you won't miss the texture and flavor of gohan. Each pack is 120 g (4.2 oz), which is the standard rice portion in Japan, and is precooked so you won't need a rice cooker: with just a minute and 20 seconds in a microwave oven at 500 watts, you have a full meal that combines a classic Japanese flavor and modern nutrition!
