Nishiki Premium 7 Grains Mix, 2 Pound

I just ordered this but I've bought it in stores before and some of the comments have me shaking my head. This is intended to be ADDED to white rice, there is even a ratio of how much to use right on the front of the bag! Of course it's going to be expensive if you're only cooking the grains... and probably not all that tasty either but you do you. You're using about four to five times too much of it... at the end of the day it's intended to be mixed with medium grain rice and cooked properly (rinsed until clear and I preferably in the rice cooker) and it's ridiculous to blame the product because you decided to do something totally different. Made properly, it's healthy, tasty, and great for stretching your rice further. The price is comparable to store price (if you can find it in the store)

We love 💗 this addition to our white rice, any type goes well. Enjoying the blend of purple color in when cooked.

Great quality rice and grains love the idea that im not just each plain white rice, but instead making multi grain rice that healthy, tastes good and no added cooking and measuring time! I just put it in the rice maker the same way i would with plain rice. love the fact that i dont have to buy and store bags of all the different types of grains that are included. It tastes just like regular white rice so i just use it like i normally would with plain whit rice. Great idea! thanks for making my family’s dinners healthier with no added time and money

A bit expensive for what you're getting but it trates good

Great way to add fibre and nutritional variety to your diet. Tastes great, definitely follow instructions on the package. Theoretically you could make your own mix but you’d have to buy all the different grains and store them and who wants to bother with that? Will order again.

Perfect. Has a slight nutty taste. I used 1 cup of white rice to 1/4 cup of multigrain. Washed, added 2 cups of water. Soaked for 30 mins before cooking. The texture is great and tastes good. Looks more “purple” in person than the photo.

It’s great mix of grains . I did 1 grain mix to 2 short rice ratio instead of recommended ratio . I love the flavor . Even tho galbitang ( found recipe online) Korean soup usually served with white rice , we made it with mixed rice . We enjoyed this meal .

**update** So, after several more experiments, I have determined the best way to prevent the purple stain. It is NOT for the faint of heart. You can still blend the rice per the instructions but, I'd advise using the stove/cooktop. Bring to a boil, preferably with plenty of liquid. And then reduce to simmer. While still simmering, use a large ladle and scoop out purple tinted water, and discard. Refill pot with fresh, clear, cool water, let simmer or bring to boil (if you think you can handle it), and repeat. Eventually, it will remain translucent. Don't fill the pot too high with water bc it will already be partially cooked. I still maintain that this is extremely time consuming and requires meticulous care. If you want easy for family dinners or meal prep, then partial cooking may be necessary ahead of time. I still honestly can't fully endorse this mix, but it is still quite tasty. **5/15/25** Whichever of the grains is leaking purple, it is super annoying. And no matter how little water I use, it always ends up a disgusting soggy mess; not appealing stickiness. I'm trying to figure out a balance, but it is exhausting. Otherwise, it's not bad taste wise, and has a good mix. I'll have to trust that these are all healthy for me (as opposed to in general) bc I have a lot of food allergies and sensitivities. Decent value.
