Why polished rice is delicious

Tawaraya is committed to delivering "polished rice."

"Why is polished rice so delicious?"

The clue is easy to understand if you think about vegetables and fruits. Delicious vegetables and fruits are seasonal, but above all, "high freshness" is key. High freshness makes them fresh and delicious. The same goes for rice; "high freshness" has a big impact on the taste of the rice.

So, what exactly is fresh rice? Simply put, it is rice that has been polished. From the moment rice is polished from brown rice to white rice, oxidation begins and the flavor gradually deteriorates. From the outside, it may not look like anything has changed, but rice is actually a very sensitive food.

At Tawaraya, we polish the rice after receiving your order and deliver it to you freshly milled. We have been committed to this style since our founding, with the desire to ensure that our customers can enjoy rice at its most delicious.
