Calrose rice, 10kg. Sunwhite. Medium grain, sticky enough for sushi and still fine as a daily rice. A restaurant sack.

A sushi counter seasons it. Korean rice, donburi, and onigiri use it. Don't rinse away the starch if you need the grains to hold. This is not a floral long-grain and not basmati. Match it to the menu that asked for it.

Keep it cool and dry, and seal the bag. Ten kilos is a kitchen sack. A home kitchen rarely needs this much unless rice is on the table every day. Don't leave the sack open in a damp store.

Sunwhite Calrose Rice - 10KG
Dhs. 120.00

Good sushi rice is short or medium grain. It cooks up glossy, stays slightly sticky and holds its shape when you press it into nigiri or roll it in nori. These are the sushi rice sacks Dubai sushi kitchens reorder, each with the price on the page. GGFT has supplied restaurant kitchens since 2004.

  • Japanese short grain: GGFT Koshihikari, GGFT Akitakomachi and GGFT Akafuji DS-1, grown in Vietnam, in 22.68kg sacks.
  • Calrose: Sunwhite Calrose Rice in a 10kg bag, and Homai Brown Calrose from the USA, 22.68kg.

Rinse the rice until the water runs almost clear, let it drain, then cook it and fold in seasoned vinegar while it's still warm. Fan it as you mix so the grains turn shiny rather than wet. Roll it with sushi nori, serve it with soy sauce, or browse the whole Japanese pantry. Supplying a sushi counter? Our page for restaurants explains how we work with kitchens.

Questions We Get Asked

Which rice is best for sushi?

A Japanese short-grain rice such as Koshihikari or Akitakomachi gives the classic sticky, glossy texture. Calrose is a medium-grain rice that many sushi kitchens also use and is easy to cook in volume.

Can I use Calrose rice for sushi?

Yes. Calrose cooks soft and slightly sticky, so it shapes well for rolls and nigiri. Homai Brown Calrose is labelled for sushi preparation.
