Ordinary Japanese rice, or uruchimai (ç²³ç±³) is the staple of the Japanese diet and consists of short translucent grains. When cooked it has a somewhat sticky texture such that it can easily be picked up and eaten with chopsticks.
Outside of Japan it is sometimes labeled as sushi rice, as this is one of its common uses. It is also used to produce sake. Glutinous rice, known in Japan as mochigome (ãã¡ç±³), is used for making mochi (é¤) and special dishes such as sekihan.
