Questions about Glutinous rice
Does glutinous rice contain gluten?
No. “Glutinous” describes its sticky texture when cooked; the rice itself contains no gluten. Rinse it before soaking, and check any seasoning or packaged mixture you add if you need to avoid gluten.
How do you cook glutinous rice so it turns sticky rather than mushy?
Rinse until the water is nearly clear, then soak for at least four hours or overnight. Drain and steam in a lined basket for about 20–30 minutes, turning the rice once, until the grains are translucent and chewy.
Can you cook glutinous rice in a rice cooker?
Yes: rinse and soak it first, drain well, then use the cooker’s sticky-rice setting if it has one. Otherwise, add only enough fresh water to just cover the rice and check it towards the end; too much water makes it heavy and wet.
What dishes use glutinous rice?
It is used for Thai mango sticky rice, Chinese zongzi (rice dumplings wrapped in leaves), and Japanese mochi. Serve it with grilled meat or savoury dishes too; its chewy texture readily absorbs sauces.
How should you store cooked glutinous rice?
Cool it promptly, refrigerate it in a covered container and use it within a day. Reheat only once, until steaming hot throughout; steaming works particularly well for restoring its soft, chewy texture.
How much energy is in a serving of glutinous rice?
A serving of about 174 g contains 169 kcal. The weight refers to the food as listed, so a cooked serving’s energy depends on how much water it has absorbed.
How should you store uncooked glutinous rice?
Keep it in an airtight container in a cool, dry cupboard, away from moisture and strong-smelling foods. Once opened, a sealed container helps protect it from pantry pests and keeps the grains dry.
