Botan Calrose, Rice Calrose Extra Fancy, 80 Ounce

I have 10 varieties of rice in my cupboard, but this is my favorite.

Being from Hawaii, rice is a staple in our home. After moving to another state it was hard for me to find sticky rice, let alone rice that cooked well and was good. Thank God for amazon lol! This brand is awesome and for the price? You can't beat it. It's sticky, doesn't have that grainy dirty or weird plastic taste that some others do. It's perfect for fried rice and sushi as well!

This is my favorite rice although I don't get to buy it very often because I can't afford to. It is very spendy and the price could come down a little bit better. Value for the money I wouldn't agree with it being on point it has a nice sticky consistency but not as sticky as sticky rice of course. It smells fresh in the bag before cooked it also smells fresh and great after you have cooked it. Very clean no bugs no dirt no yucky of any sort that I've seen. It was sealed well.

I have purchased this brand ans I'm very pleased with the taste.

READ THIS: I love this rice, it is my absolute favorite, BUT I have had to add BAY leaves to keep the bugs from forming. I use the word "forming" because they are not there at first, but then show up. Does that mean that there are eggs or parasites? Maybe, but I am hoping soaking them well is getting rid of them.

If you didn't purchase this for sushi but instead as an all-around rice (as I did) be warned that this rice is starchy and needs to be rinsed over and over until the water runs clear. This is not a particularly fast process and even with heavy rinsing this rice has a gummy consistency that isn't very pleasant. It will, however, do in a pinch when it's difficult to find any rice at all during the pandemic. The price is certainly more than reasonable. Cooking it with low sodium chicken or vegetable stock helps. It turns out fine in my rice cooker. Adding some steamed vegetables to it seems to break up the gummy consistency a bit. Will I continue to buy this when rice becomes more readily available? Probably not. Am I glad I'm able to procure it now? Sure. It's not my favorite but it's certainly edible.

Some of the Softest, fluffiest rice I’ve ever had the pleasure of eating. h

We love Botan rice & for some reason the grocery stores don't keep enough stock. So glad Amazon had it.

Can’t go wrong with this brand. A little expensive but I have always loved the quality.

Llego sin daños la bolsa, buena calidad en el producto.

The Botan Musenmai Calrose Rice is a very good quality rice. It is very tasty rice that is easy to cook and has a great texture. I use it in all of my rice recipes.

Excelente para el sushi

Buena calidad y buen precio.
