Fuji Sakura No-Wash Rice 5kg｜Reliable Japanese Rice for Every Day
Named after cherry blossoms, Fuji Sakura is a well-balanced no-wash Japanese rice designed for daily cooking. Skip the rinsing, enjoy proper Japanese rice even on your busiest days.
Key Features
- No rinsing needed: Pre-processed to remove bran, so you just measure, add water, and cook. A real time-saver on hectic mornings and tired evenings.
- Balanced, mild flavor: Not too sticky, not too dry — it pairs naturally with curry, donburi, grilled fish, stir-fry, and more. A true all-rounder.
- Family-friendly: The gentle taste works for everyone from toddlers to grandparents, making it a dependable daily staple.
- Generous 5kg bag: Enough for a small family for 2–3 weeks, so you always have rice on hand without frequent restocking.
Serving Suggestions
Excellent under Japanese curry, as a base for donburi bowls, or alongside simmered dishes. It also holds its shape well for fried rice. For a simple comfort meal, just serve hot with umeboshi and nori.

How to use
- 1
Measure the rice
Use the cup that came with your rice cooker. No-wash rice has the bran removed, so the same cup holds slightly more actual rice than regular white rice.
- 2
Add water
Since there's no rinsing, add a bit more water — about 210–220ml per 150g of rice. Use the musenmai water line on your cooker if it has one.
- 3
Soak
Let the rice sit in the water for 30 minutes to 1 hour. This lets moisture reach the center of each grain for an even, fluffy cook.
- 4
Cook
Start the rice cooker on normal mode (or no-wash rice mode if available). Don't open the lid while cooking.
- 5
Steam and fluff
When the cooker signals done, let the rice rest for 10–15 minutes. Then gently fluff from the bottom with a rice paddle to release steam and get glossy, well-separated grains.
Frequently asked questions
How is Fuji Sakura different from Koshihikari rice?
Koshihikari is stickier with a pronounced sweetness — great for onigiri and bento. Fuji Sakura has a more balanced, neutral profile that works well under curry, in donburi bowls, and for fried rice. Choose based on your cooking style, or try both.
How do I store rice in HCMC's tropical climate?
After opening, transfer to an airtight container and store in the fridge's vegetable drawer for best results. If keeping at room temperature, avoid direct sunlight and humidity. Use within a month of opening. A dried chili in the container helps deter bugs.
Any tips for cooking it perfectly?
Use slightly more water than regular rice (about 210–220ml per 150g). Soak for at least 30 minutes before cooking so moisture reaches the core of each grain. After the cooker finishes, let it steam for 10 minutes, then fluff from the bottom for glossy, separated grains.
What's the shelf life?
Unopened, about 1 year from production date. Once opened, aim to finish within a month for the freshest flavor. In HCMC's heat and humidity, refrigerated storage helps extend freshness.
How long does 5kg last for a family of four?
If the family eats rice at every meal, 5kg lasts about 2 weeks. If you only have rice for dinner, it stretches to around 3 weeks. You can reorder anytime on the Farmi app so you never run out.
Who is this for?
Busy professionals
A proper meal in 15 minutes after getting home. No prep needed.

20.5g protein, rich in Omega-3, 0g carbs. Great for weekly meal prep.
Storage & usage tips
Thaw properly
Move from freezer to fridge the night before. Never use hot water.
Don't refreeze
Cook within the day after thawing. Refreezing degrades texture and flavor.
Pat dry before cooking
Use paper towels to dry the surface — the skin will crisp up nicely.
Quick thaw in a pinch
Submerge the sealed bag in cold water for 20 minutes.
