Here's the steps, so helpful video! *Buy the right/correct type of rice and store it correctly.
*Wash rice 3-4 times & drain
*Place in pot with 1 to 1 ratio rice to water
*Soak rice at least 1/2 hour
*Cook on High heat at first till boiling (about 10 minutes)
* Then turn down to very low and set timer/cook for 12 minutes
*Turn heat off, let sit to steam for 10 minutes, do not open lid
*Fluff rice with large spoon or fork, don't mash it.

So glad to hear you found the video helpful 🥰.
Tried with short and long grain rice and still worked perfect. Made cooking rice on stove way less intimidating
Hello! Just want to thank you for this video. Our ricecooker got broken during our relocation and I had to cook rice in a saucepan which was a first. Our first attempt winging it was a complete disaster. After watching your video, I followed every step and it turned out perfectly!!!! Thank you very much!
Thank you for your comment ! So glad to hear the video helped 🥰.
I have tried using your method and my rice turn out well! Thanks for sharing! ^^
I’m so glad to hear that 🥰. Thanks for your comment!
Wow I even learned how to organise my fridge in this video! Very informative!! Arigato
Glad to hear it helped 🥰🎶
This is the perfect recipe. Love from the USA.
Thank you ! Kiss from japan 😘!
This method is fool proof! Just made it with 2 cups of rice and it came out perfect. Very easy, will continue to use this method.
So glad to hear the video helped 😊!
I followed your recipe and cooked perfect Japanese rice. Of all the rice types, I've always loved Japanese rice the best. I even went to a Japanese supermarket to find the specific brands you mentioned, lol.
Wow ! You are so devoted ! Glad to hear the recipe worked perfectly!
Just wanted to follow up: the Japanese rice holds up well the following day being nuked in the microwave. It retains its moistness and texture.
I just found your channel and I already love it ^___^
Thank you 🥰🎶
I really like the cling wrap technique for rice packs
But let it in the fridge for 2 days no more
This helped me so much! My onigiri came out perfectly
Glad to hear that 🥰🎶
Thank you! The rice came out perfect. Greetings from Mexico
🥰👍🏻🎶
Thanks...❤️❤️
You are welcome 😊!
A tip for those who use Californian Japanese rice (Nishiki for instance) use 1 to 1.25 ratio rice to water otherwise the bottom part burns, well at least for me.
I wish I read your comment before I tried making it 😂🥹😭
i failed many times cooking japanese rice. thanks to this video it finally turned out perfect!
That’s awesome 👏🏻 ! Yay 😁
I’ve always keep my rice batch in Tupperware ☺️ but I like your idea better 🤩
I’m glad to hear you found the tip helpful 😊.
I've always loved the white rice in like buffets shit hits diff 😩🍚
Thank you for showing this with a pan instead of a rice cooker ❤️ me and my partner have been wanting to make onigiri 🍙 also you are the first to say to soak the rice first, I can’t wait to try making rice for us to use to try your onigiri recipe
Hope it works well for you 🥰🎶
I'm hoping I can try this with your sushi rice instead of the regular rice but I will do both
Hi! I love your channel! It very informative and I'm actually about to make onigiri for the first time! I want to know if Sho-ChikU-Bai short grain rice is okay to use? Its all I could find
I guess so but I can’t be sure.
@@asakusa-tokyokitchen thank you for replying! The rice turned out very well, thankfully! Thanks to your tips : D
bruh the subtitles in 3:35 : and repeat this 300 times
Thanks for this wonderful video I want to start to cook japanese food and this is my start point in this thing.
300 times 🤣🤣🤣.
😋
Thank you for this series! Do you store your cooked rice squares in the refrigerator or the freezer? Thank you. 😊
I think this will help !

I always come back and watch bcz I forget how to make rice 😅
Haha 😆! Thank you for watching it many times 💖.
So I wanted to prepare my lunch with this recipe and it worked awesome. One small problem I had was I couldnt get the specific Rice you mentioned and I use my own rice (Persian White Rice) and it turned out a bit dry. So I guess I'll make another batch later and add more than 1cup of water (cuz our traditional recepie uses about half a cup more and I think it's bcuz of the rice itself) or I prolong the soaking part.
Anyway it was a great video thanks thanks thanks 😋
That’s wonderful 🤩. The type of rice really matters and it’s important to adjust the amount of water as you did 👍🏻.
Can I use the same method in a rice cooker? Thank you in advance!
nice
🥰👍🏻🎶
@@asakusa-tokyokitchen wow you replied. Ok let me be more specific. I agree with the way you presented this rice recipee, and what i liked was the bonus stuff when u told how to keep it refrigirate it. So thanks again keep it up
Glad to hear you like the last part🥰. Thanks for your comment!
OMG I just did this! My rice came out to perfectionnnnnnn!
So glad to hear this way worked for you🥰
Thank you so much for your video!
Can you tell me what number is the temperature you use for ''low heat'' and ''high heat'' on your induction stove? I used to make perfect koshihikari rice on my former gas stove, but now that I'm making rice on induction stove and with my creuset, the rice turns out off, a bit mushy and overcooked but some parts are still hard, not entirely cooked. This doesn't happen with my normal, non heavy pot (with a very thin lid), so not sure what is happening here with the combination of creuset + induction... Any ideas?
I bring it boil at 5/7 the cook at 2/7. 1/7 is “keep it warm” btw.
Thank you! Will the cooked wrapped rice last a week in the fridge or should i freeze it?
Yes it last a week👍🏻.
Thank you! I'm from India, just returned from Japan, and brought some Japanese rice to try cooking. I'll follow your instructions.🙏 One question: do high end rice cookers with ceramic coated bowl (3mm thick) really better than let's say a pot like Le Cruset? Arigato 🙏
Honestly, I can’t tell the difference unless I compare them next to each other 😅
Thank you for your feedback.
Hello!! Can I also cook basmati rice the same way? If you've tried it, what kind of ratio did you use? Thanks!
I’m afraid I have never cooked basmati rice.
Thank you. I left my family and my homeland to study abroad in another country. I suck at cooking and I miss my mother's cooking. Thanks to you, the only thing I can cook great is japanese rice. You really help the people in my situation. I wish you a great day. :)
No worries ! Everyone suck at cooking at the beginning, I did too 😉! You need to try and fail many times to cook like a pro👩🏻🍳🔪 !
FIFO- First In First Out
good plan for the rice.. thank you Yoshimi😋
😊👍🏻🎶
BLESSINGS
To you too💖.
After you make the cooked rice square packs, and they have cooled, do you store them at room temperature or in the refrigerator?
In the fridge.
I have one question: do I need to use Donabe to cook perfect rise or is it the same as a normal pot? Because Ive seen all write that everyone needs it when he wants to cook best rice like japan does
Thick heavy cast iron pot is considered good but any pot even frying pan will do😉.
When you make those packs, do you store them at room temperature or in the fridge? I'd love to just have rice ready to go every day.
Cool down to room temperature and then in the fridge 😊
How do you warm up the rice that was on the clean film after you take it out of the fridge?
Microwave to steaming hot.
Thank you .. I see you did not add salt to the water.
We don’t add any seasoning unless we make this kind of rice 👇🏻 !

Do hv any suggestion for japanese rice here in indonesia? Any brand?
I’m sorry I don’t know what brands are available in Indonesia 😅.
Is the short gain rice and sticky rice different? Sorry I'm kinda confuse🤔😅
I know 😅 there are so many different types of rice and it is confusing ! There are two types of sticky rice, short grain and medium grain. Rice in japan is shot grain sticky rice.
Hi can you still warm your rice up after you stored it in the fridge? (In the microwave for instance?)
Yes, I keep them in fridge or freezer and warm it up in microwave. I think you might find this video showing how I store rice helpful !
ua-cam.com/video/MkOa79HmBSE/v-deo.html
Personally, I've found the rice, like bread, keeps much better frozen than refrigerated. I portion them into sandwich size Ziploc bags and stack them flat in the freezer. You can reheat them in the microwave.
Make sure the rice is not too hot. MUST BE LESS THEN 100°C !!!!!!! If bot the foil will melt.
Thanks for the video :)
thank you for your video. I used a steel pot, and i got burned rice (crispy rice). I am thinking of changing to another type of pot like wheat stone pot. Can i ask you, if it matters if the pot cover got a small hole or not? You mentioned using cast iron pan with a heavy cover is good for rice...
We sometimes make crispy rice on purpose 😉. I normally use a pot without the little hole.
Do you reheat the extras by putting it in the microwave? Or do you eat it cold?
Reheat it to steaming hot otherwise the texture is terrible.
@@asakusa-tokyokitchen In a microwave? Do I add water?
Microwave, no additional water.
Is it traditional to cook the rice with salt, garlic, green onions?
So after the rice is wrapped up and if wanted in a basket like you showed in the video we store it in the fridge?
Yes
@@asakusa-tokyokitchen Okay, Thanks! Looking forward to trying this!
Hi , I have a question, can I cook a short grain Brown rice in the same way? Is the water ratio the same? Thanks in advance!
This is how I cook short grain brown rice. Hope this helps !
ua-cam.com/video/0or50-ZvEkI/v-deo.html
@@asakusa-tokyokitchen Many thanks!
I have a question, after you soak the rice for 30 min do you add another 5cups of water before you cook it or cook it right away after you soak it for 30 min??? pls answer thanks
Right away with the water you are soaking the rice.
Rice cooker also very convenient
For how long the rice could be preserved? Can I freeze it? How to warm it up? In microwave oven?
This will help😉
ua-cam.com/video/xQVUx2Kyq6Q/v-deo.html
How do you reheat the rice after it’s been in the fridge?
Microwave to steaming hot.
Might be a dumb question but would using a rice cooker ruin the texture of the rice?
It’s not a dump question at all ! Rice cooker is just fine as far as you don’t keep the rice in it too long after it’s done😉 !
Are you using a rice cooker cup or regular measuring cup?
Rice cooker measuring cup when I use rice cooker and regular one when I use pot. But it doesn’t really matter as far as rice and water are 1 to 1.
In the initial step, if my rice water doesn't run clear after 4 washes, should I keep on going until it does?
No need to 😉
I was wondering... the steaming part. I didnt get it. You turned off the stove and let it be for 10min? Just that?
Yes it’s just that.
I was wondering, what's the longest I can soak my rice for? Would it tast different if I soaked it for an hour plus?
That’s fine but depending on the temperature you may want to keep it in the fridge.
@@asakusa-tokyokitchen Alright, thank you so much for the reply!
Do you just reheat the rice in a microwave when you want to use it?
Yes, until it’s steaming hot 🔥
Is the regular rice good for making sushi?
I’m not sure what you mean by “regular” rice but it should be sticky rice.
How long can we store rice in refrigerator?
About a week.
How do you reheat the rice once cooled?
Microwave. It’s important to reheat it until steaming hot to regain the softness and stickiness 😉.
I live at 2100+ meters altitude. Do you think there would be any changes to cooking rice for high-altitude?
I think you need a bit more water, soaking time and cooking time😉.
@@asakusa-tokyokitchen so I made rice. Other than adding an extra half cup of water per cup of rice, I followed the instructions to the letter, and it turned out perfectly. ありがとうございます！
Is the rice mushy? I like it if yes.
when you want to eat the rice another day should you heat it up?
I normally reheat it steaming hot to regain the softness and the sticky-ness.
The Japanese rice sold in my supermarket has the words "No wash rice. Just add water". Why this rice does not require washing 4 times? Is it because it has already been pre-washed ?? Thank you.
Not with water but yes, it’s washed already 😉.
Hello! Do we add salt to the rice in any steps of the process?
No salt.
The audio quality is not good but can you atleast add subtitles? Btw thank you for the video!
What is the best way to warm the rice after you take it out of the fridge?
Microwave. Make sure to heat it up completely. If it’s not hot enough, rice won’t regain the softness and stickiness.
I normally do 1 minute at 600w per pack.
@@asakusa-tokyokitchen thank you!! I’ve never been able to get rice reheated correctly. I needed more time. Thank you again 🙏🏻
@@asakusa-tokyokitchen I do have another question. Do you remove the cling wrap before microwaving the rice or leave it in?
Leave it in 😉
I saw someone using mirin and ryorisu and salt to soak Japanese rice but they don't give measurements..Do you know how to do it?
I don’t put ant seasonings when I cook plain rice so I can’t tell, sorry.
