What Is Hibachi Fried Rice?
The main difference between fried rice and Hibachi Fried Rice is that one is Chinese and one is Japanese. Hibachi Fried Rice is Japanese. Japanese style fried rice tends to use sushi type rice which is shorter, grainier, and stickier than Chinese style rice. Additionally, Hibachi Fried Rice uses a lot of seasoning to give you just the right taste.
