farming in my country

In these days, decrease of the population that participate in the agriculture has been an issue in Japan. So self food-sufficiency rate in Japan is pretty low. Because of this problem, Japan has to depends on other countries to import huge amount of crops. However, the only crop that is not imported from foreign country is, "rice". As you know, Japanese main diet is composed of rice, vegetable, raw fish and stuffs like that! So Japan is famous for its amount of the rice harvest. Especially, my hometown is proud of the pretty delicious rice and of course I love them!!!!!


Japanese staple food is rice, so in Japan, you can taste various kind of foods made by rice. For example, rice cake; mushed rice, sushi; rice with a raw fish and things like that! My most favorite one is rice ball. It's pretty simple, so we can enjoy its taste obviously. The way to make it is so easy.
Boil some rice and shape like ball or triangle with your hands. Pretty tasty! If you have a chance, please try it!! :)
