What's the best Japanese Rice source in the US?
I was reading Maki's description of how to make good Japanese rice and she mentions that fresh rice, within three months of harvest, is very difficult to purchase outside of Japan. I'm sure it's difficult, but not impossible - especially in New York. What are the best distributors or sources of rice close to harvest time? (via megnut)

I don't know if it would be "the best source in the U.S.", but Mitsuwa would probably be a good bet.

Try Jasmart Japanese grocery chain in Manhattan...Mitsuwa in Edgewater NJ...few Japanese Grocery stores in East Village on 9th Street..Ask them what's the newly harvested rice...
