ReMARKable Palate #126: Koshi Rice
This week, I speak with Mark Isbell of Isbell farms in Humnoke, Arkansas. Mark’s family has been growing rice for generations, and he joins us today to speak about koshihikari rice, the favored sushi rice, in Japan, and how his family was the first to successfully grow this rice in the United States. Along the way, we learn about the process of growing rice.
