Everyday Organic Sweet Brown Rice from Ohsawa
This 100% Organic Sweet Brown Rice is California-grown in the foothills near the Shasta and Trinity Mountains, where clean air, abundant water, and rich volcanic soil support careful organic farming. It cooks up with a moist, chewy texture and a gentle sweetness that makes it easy to enjoy year-round in simple, everyday meals.
Mochi-Like Texture with Gentle Sweetness
Sweet brown rice is a whole-grain glutinous brown rice with a starch profile that naturally becomes pleasantly sticky as it cooks. As you chew, its subtle sweetness gradually comes through, making it especially comforting and satisfying.
Ideal for Donabe Cooking
Sweet brown rice cooks beautifully in donabe and tastes great on its own or combined with other ingredients for rice bowls, porridge, or mixed-grain rice. It can also be cooked together with regular brown rice or other grains to enjoy different variation of textures. Naturally rich in fiber, vitamin B1, magnesium, and essential minerals, it’s a delicious and nourishing choice for everyday cooking.
Basic Cooking Instructions
Rinse rice and place in a pot with a tight-fitting lid.
For 1 cup rice, add 1.5 - 2 cups water and a pinch of sea salt.
Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for 40–50 minutes until water is absorbed.
Turn off heat and let rest for 5 minutes before fluffing and serving.
Optional: Soak rice for 3–8 hours before cooking to enhance sweetness and improve texture.
