This is truly some delicious rice and the only rice you'll find in my house. I split the bulk bag with my neighbor and she is now hooked on it, too!
This rice is exceptional. Its technically a brown rice but you can use it in lieu of a white rice without changing your flavor profile. Its so yummy. Ive used it in Spanish rice and in spam musubi. For musibi or sushi rice dont wash it too much.
Love the hat and the artwork for your packaging. Thank you!
Taste so, so good. I am sure I already gave review a few days ago.
I did cooked both of them and they really taste different than other brands. Much, much better.
My sister and brother in law stayed at Chico Rice through harvest host and she told me all about your rice. I ordered it, and was not disappointed! Loved both the blonde and the brown rice! I always thought rice was rice…I was wrong! The only problem is we are going it through it much too fast. We may need to stop in on our next RV adventure next month!
Won’t buy anything else when it comes to brown rice, we absolutely love this stuff. Has great flavor for whatever your brown rice needs are. Buy this stuff, you won’t regret it. Yum.
We eat rice all the time, and this Blonde Milled California Japonica Rice from Chico Rice is seriously the best we’ve had. It’s super easy to make in the Instant Pot—just set it and forget it. The texture comes out perfect every time, soft but not mushy, and it has a really nice, natural flavor.
You can definitely tell it’s higher quality than the regular store-bought stuff. Plus, it’s grown and milled in California, which is pretty cool. If you eat rice often, this is 100% worth trying!
This is seriously delicious rice. Love it!
Love the taste and am sharing with friends to spread the word!
I bought a 25 lb bag of this wonderful rice several years ago through the Mendocino Grain Project. It’s been stored in the oaper bag it came in, inside a bin, in a cool space. Today, I poured the last 2 lbs into a jar and cooked some of it. It still looks, smells and tastes fresh! So often, rice bought at the grocery store smells and tastes rancid. This Chico Blonde rice is wonderful! About to order more.
I was searching for Haigamai rice grown in the US when I discovered Chico Rice, and it has been a staple in our half-Japanese household for years now. The quality has remained consistently outstanding. Highly recommend both the blonde and brown rice.
We love this rice so much that we can’t live without it now we live in Washington state so we had it shipped
We used to live in western California and could get Chico at our local grocery store (palace market in pt Reyes)
Best rice for japanese cuisine!
Thank you!
The favorite rice of our family - the texture is amazing and you can taste the freshness.
A person probably thinks rice is just rice. How wrong that can be. The blond illed rice I purchased was and is a nice eating experience. Taste is on another level.
Cooked the rice according to instructions and added a little coconut oil. Turned out to be delicious.
Wonderful rice. Highly recommend this product!
Driving to and from the Bay area from Seattle, I saw the sign "CHICO RICE" along I-5, decided to look them up. Loved what I saw and so I ordered and Blonde and Brown rice. They are both amazing. Best flavors I have had in a rice!
We are on a subscription plan with the Chico brown Japonica, and there was a glitch in the system so we didn’t get our order before we ran out. So we bought some Whole Foods 365 brown Japonica to last us until our shipment of Chico rice arrived. Well, the new Chico shipment came and we cooked some up and let me tell you: The difference is like night and day. Chico rice is of far greater quality than the 365 brand! Oishii. Thank you.
I usually use cornstarch to thicken soups, stews and sauces. I bought this as it was suggested to use for this purpose and it was wonderful. This will be my new go-to for a thickener.
I made the Blonde rice in my rice cooker. Used 1 c. Rice to about 1 1/2 c. Water. It was perfect. I loved this rice so much that I bought a new rice cooker that has a setting for Brown rice and for White rice. I had a very hard time trying to seal the resealable bag! Is it just me? I'm gonna have to put it in another container as I can't zip the bag closed.
I have tried several brown rices but have never had rice like Chicos.
It cooks perfectly as instructions say.
It is delicious and fluffy.
It is the only rice that I buy since my children turned me on to it.
