Not Only Brewery Rice, but also Delicious Eating Rice
Manamusume was bred in 1997 by Fukugawa Agricultural Experiment Station, Miyagi. The name "Manamusume" means the breeder cares for this rice like his "cute daughter." Manamusume has planting characteristics such as disease resistance and cold tolerance. It also has characteristics such as a large particle, low protein content, and low broken rate at high polish, making it suitable for brewery rice.
Most brewery rice is not for sale as food, but you can buy Manamusume directly from the website. Manamusume has high production yield and moderate viscosity, creating an umami flavor with only a little salt. Manamusume is suitable for salty fried rice.
