Imported from China, Bamboo Rice is a high quality short grain white rice infused with the chlorophyll extracted from green bamboo. Aromatic with a stunning appearance, there's nothing like it!
*Special Tip - Using Bamboo Rice For Sushi: Bamboo Rice is a short grain white rice that has been infused with the chlorophyll from baby bamboo. It is not considered sushi rice. That being said, it adds beautiful color and flavor to sushi and will make your Ahi roll an instant bestseller! Because it is not traditional sushi rice, it does behave a bit differently when cooked. Though not a traditional method of cooking sushi rice, we have found that using the cooking directions on the package (1 ? quarts water per 2 lbs of Bamboo Rice) actually works very well with one additional step: Leave the rice covered for an additional 20 minutes when finished cooking. At that time you can cut in the rice vinegar (if desired) while you bring the rice to room temperature to work with. It will have a sticky quality like sushi rice, yet still maintains its texture and mild green tea flavor.
