Specialist rice ball purveyors with the Japanese tick of approval - MUSUBIYA

MUSUBIYA, a specialist purveyor of rice balls based in Sydney, has been recently making the rounds in the local Japanese community for its high-quality offerings. This establishment has a strong focus on using Japanese-grown rice, which they cook in clay pots (a technique even the average Japanese person finds difficult). Clay pots are traditional Japanese cooking vessels that allow rice to be cooked at a slower pace due to their low thermal conductivity. Rice cooked in clay pots is said to draw out

the true sweetness and savoury qualities of rice through this slower cooking method. While controlling the intensity of heat and levels of water is difficult and can be tedious, this is the secret to cooking delicious rice. As the clay pot continues to remain hot after the heat has been

turned off, the rice is given the opportunity to slowly steam and release any excess moisture, resulting in perfectly plump individual grains of rice. The amount of water used and level of heat applied to the clay pot is adjusted each day according to the temperature and humidity. MUSUBIYA also offers delivery services in their efforts to offer delicious morsels, without the hassle, to as many people as possible. While rice balls are generally said to be at their peak deliciousness when warm and freshly made, this establishment has gone through many processes to figure out the perfect level of firmness of the rice, and seasoning of the fillings to ensure their products are tasty even after they’ve cooled down. Plans are already in the making for rice balls using brown rice for the health conscious, takikomi-gohan (rice cooked with broth and various ingredients), mazekomigohan (rice mixed with different seasonings and ingredients), and other options. Does an ebi-ten musubi (tempura prawn rice ball), rice ball wrapped in grilled meat, or spam rice ball sound good to you? Then hop onto the MUSUBIYA website and try a tasty rice ball or two today!
