How do you prepare Minute sticky rice cups?

Peel back the film and microwave the cup for about one minute. Let it stand briefly, then fluff and eat.

Is this rice good for sushi?

Yes. It is medium-grain sticky rice, the texture sushi and poke bowls call for. Season it with rice vinegar if you want classic sushi rice.

How much rice is in each pack?

Each 8.8 oz pack holds two single-serve cups of medium-grain sticky rice.

Does it need refrigeration?

No. The cups are shelf-stable until opened. Refrigerate any leftover rice and reheat it.

How does it compare with microwave rice pouches?

Cups give tighter single-serve portions and a stickier texture; pouches usually hold more rice and suit plain rice sides.

Our take on the Minute Ready-to-Eat Restaurant-Style Sticky Rice

Minute's sticky rice cups are single-serve, shelf-stable cups of medium-grain sticky rice that you microwave for about a minute. They are aimed at people who want sushi-style rice or a quick rice bowl without cooking a pot. The main draw is speed and portion control: two BPA-free cups per pack, gluten-free certified and Non-GMO Project verified, with no preservatives or artificial flavors. Against rivals like Ben's Original or Uncle Ben's microwave rice pouches, the cups give tighter portions and a stickier texture suited to sushi and poke, but you get less rice per package and pay more per serving than dry rice.
