    japonica rice

    A variety of short-grain rice common in Taiwan; it is characterized by being soft and sticky when cooked and is often used for rice cakes. This type was originally developed during the Japanese colonial period to distinguish it from local long-grain [[在来米|在來米|zai4 lai2 mi3]] and rice from the Japanese mainland.
