KALDI's "Mix it and it's Chinese Okowa
This rice mixing ingredient gives the texture of glutinous rice "okowa" just by mixing it in with cooked rice. The price is 298 yen (tax included). Rice is not included.
The secret of the texture is the ingredient "glutinous rice cake
Most rice mixtures are cooked with rice that has been polished, but this one is mixed with cooked rice. 2 cups of rice is added, mixed with a rice scooper to distribute the mixture throughout the rice, and steamed for 10 minutes.
In addition to cooked white rice, add
Stir and steam for 10 minutes.
How does it taste?
The texture is chewy and sticky, and the taste is sweet and spicy with the umami of soup stock. Just like okowa! I wondered how it would taste if I just mixed it in at the end. I wondered, but it is true that the texture is very sticky, like glutinous rice.
The ingredients are ground pork, bamboo shoots, shiitake mushrooms, and kikurage mushrooms. Not a lot of ingredients! But the richly seasoned pork and crunchy kikurage (kikurage) add to the enjoyment of eating the dish.
The chewy texture can be felt more strongly when it is cooled down a bit than when it is hot and steamy. I also recommend making onigiri (rice balls)! If you want to enjoy okowa without having to buy glutinous rice and seasonings, try this recipe.
