About Gohan

Gohan, or steamed white rice, is a staple of Japanese cuisine and is widely consumed across Asia. Made primarily from polished short-grain japonica rice, it boasts a delicate texture and mild flavor, making it a versatile base for countless dishes. Gohan is rich in carbohydrates, providing an essential source of energy, but it is low in fat, cholesterol, and sodium. While it lacks significant amounts of protein and fiber, pairing it with nutrient-dense side dishes like fish, tofu, or vegetables enhances its nutritional profile. Brown rice, a less processed alternative to white gohan, offers greater fiber and micronutrient content for those seeking added health benefits. Though gohan is a low-calorie option, mindful portion control is recommended for individuals monitoring their carbohydrate intake. Highly adaptable and easy to digest, gohan remains a central and comforting component of traditional Japanese meals.
