Rice.

My family's typical practice.
Polishing rice.

My mum has received new crop brown rice from her friend this year too.
We went together to polished them.




Important to choose which polishing level you want.

I asked my mum to polish only 50% instead of her normal 70%.
I love 50% polished one. =P



easy set-ups, hor?

This self rice polishing machine can polish 10kg of rice by 100yen.




The rice, this year is from the place called 'Chiyoda' town in Hiroshima,
Where famous for its unique rice planting festival are organized.

It's uniqueness, now recognized as a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage.


Shiu-chan actually saw this festival during his very first Japan visit with host family.
Since then, what a coincident, he got chance to eat their rice.
