Wild Rice

We here in Asia can’t get enough of white rice—and Japan’s Toyo Rice Corporation has created a superfood variety, the Kinmemai Premium. It comes with a hefty price tag of US$109 per kilogram, leading it to be named the World’s Most Expensive Rice by the Guinness World Records in 2016. You’ll get your money’s worth, as the rinse-free rice comes with plenty of health benefits. It’s a blend of Japan’s five best grains, which went through a unique ageing process to enhance texture and flavour. The milling technology also ensures that it doesn’t strip away its nutritious layer, so each bite is packed with essential minerals—which makes eating sushi or donburi a guiltfree experience. Kinmemai has other products, too: Kinmemai Better White and Kinmemai Better Brown, now available in Singapore. kinmemai.com
