- If the flavor is too mild for your liking, feel free to add half a tablespoon of soy sauce or a pinch of salt to adjust the taste.
- If you prefer a firmer texture of rice, place the rice in a colander and rinse it under running water. This helps eliminate any stickiness, resulting in a smoother ochazuke.
