Japanese Rice: A Culinary Delight And A Symbol Of Spirituality

Our guest is Jun Mattison who is the assistant manager at The Rice Factory New York https://trf-ny.com/.  The Rice Factory New York is an importer, wholesaler and retailer of premium rice.  The company offers the best taste and flavor possible by fully controlling the quality of rice from farming, storing, milling and transporting.     Rice is eaten all over the world but for Japanese people, it has particularly a special place in their hearts.  In Japan, rice is treated not as a side dish but as the main character of the meal.  Also, it is a symbol of love.  For example, people make rice balls for someone to express care and affection.   In this episode, we will discuss the unique Japanese mindset about rice, why Japanese rice is unique and can offer outstanding taste, texture and flavor, how to cook rice to maximize its deliciousness and much, much more!!!   IG: @junrainfall @the_rice_factory_NY
