Don't you hate it when that happens? Which is why I keep my rice
in different containers. The basmati is in a 5kg red zipper bag,
the short grain white is in a large plastic container (this is the
one we make most often) and the 17kg bag of brown organic short
grain Lundberg is in the freezer.

I far preferred Maruku brand (they're all from California but that
one was the best in my Tiger brand rice cooker) but I can't find it
here anymore so now I buy Italian rice, the kind used for risotto,
which is indistinguishable from white short grain for sushi.
