Freshly harvested and packed straight from the fields, Heavenly New Crop grains have a purer, sweeter flavour, a softer texture, and a more translucent sheen. When steamed properly (and cooking it requires less water than year-old rice), Heavenly New Crop Rice is soft and puffy and oh-so-satisfying. The softer and stickier texture of New Crop Rice also makes it particularly suitable for cooking congee. This vibrantly-flavoured rice is particularly sought after by rice connoisseurs.
