Tomorokoshi Gohan or Corn Rice is seasoned rice with corn kernels. Corn’s sweetness goes well with slightly salty steamed rice. It’s best using fresh corn, so this is the dish to make when corn is in season. Tomorokoshi Gohan is great as is for Bento but also good for Onigiri. Make extra for dinner, and use the leftover for next day’s lunch. Tomorokoshi Gohan tastes so fresh and delicious, and it’s super easy to make. Try it this summer!
