 Packaged rice with the taste of fresh rice

Easy-to-eat packaged rice can be found in many grocery stores.
While it is very convenient, did you know that most packaged rice products lose some of their flavor due to the way they are manufactured?

Cook rice in a large container → Pack rice → Heat again to sterilize → Ship

This process of reheating the rice to sterilize it has resulted in the loss of its deliciousness. We do not call it "unappetizing," but we consider it a waste.

On the other hand, this product is manufactured differently.

Pack washed rice → Heat rice for cooking (sterilization can be done at the same time) → Ship

Rice is packed in a special rice-cookable pack and cooked as is. Since the rice is heated only once, it is packed with rice that tastes just as it was freshly cooked.
You can taste the original flavor and freshness in this product.

【How to eat】
Remove the paper package, peel off the film to the dotted line, and heat the container in a microwave oven at 500W for about 1 minute and 30 seconds.
Please adjust to your preference as it may vary slightly depending on the model.
After heating, please serve the rice while it is still warm.

【Ingredients】
Uruchi rice (from Japan)/pH adjuster

【Storage Method】

Store at room temperature away from direct sunlight and high temperatures.
