All rice varieties in the world belong to two main families: Indica, whose grains are long, thin, and less sticky; and Japonica, whose grains are short, plump, and tend to stick together. These two families include thousands of rice sub-varieties – which originate from different regions and possess distinct characteristics – and are therefore suitable for a wide variety of recipes and cooking methods. The rice suitable for making sushi is a short-grain rice that is cooked, mixed with vinegar, salt, and sugar while still hot, and cooled immediately. The result is a balanced-tasting rice whose sticky grains cling to one another. For preparing sushi rice, one should use rice varieties belonging to the Japonica family, whose grains are relatively sticky, which prevents the sushi rice from falling apart. Traditionally, it is customary to use short-grain rice varieties, such as Minori – a variety originating from Japan that has flattened, short grains. One can also use medium-grain rice varieties, such as Calrose – a rice variety originating in California whose popularity in the US has also made it well-liked by the Japanese. If you wish to achieve a perfect result, it is also important to pay attention to the polishing level of the rice. In principle, the more polished the rice, the higher its quality. Tamaki Gold is an example of rice that has undergone extensive polishing, and the inner part of its grain is relatively moist, which provides a high-quality result when preparing rice for sushi.
