Notes
This is a delicious and simple Japanese-style meal. The rice grains are distinct, blending the savory taste of katsuobushi, the crispy aroma of nori, and the natural sweetness of corn. Katsuobushi is rich in high-quality protein and DHA, and when paired with the minerals in nori and the dietary fiber in corn, it offers a balanced nutritional profile. The preparation is very simple and beginner-friendly; the actual cooking time takes only about 5 minutes, plus the rice cooking time, so you can enjoy it in about 40 minutes total.

Note: If using the Xiaomi small rice cooker to cook Northeast rice, the water level just needs to cover the rice by 3 millimeters; if there is too much water, the rice will turn out mushy rather than flaky.
