Thai Sticky Rice

Thai Sticky rice is a staple in Northern Thai cuisine and can now be enjoyed in your own home using common kitchen tools.
Ingredients
- 1 Cup Thai Sweet or Glutinous Rice (Do Not use Jasmine or long grain rice.)
- Water (For soaking rice and to fill pan more than halfway.)
Instructions
- 1
Rinse rice well in a bowl and drain until water runs clear. Usually 3 or 4 rinses is needed.
- 2
Soak 1 cup of Thai Sweet Rice or Glutinous Rice in a bowl with 2 cups of water for about 4 hours or overnight is preferred. The longer it soaks the faster it will cook.
- 3
Drain rice over splatter guard and place over a skillet that is filled with water more than halfway.
- 4
Have rice in a mound then flattened to cook evenly. Use the same bowl you soaked the rice in and dome it.
- 5
Bring water to a boil, then lower to a gentle boil. After 10 minutes flip rice over on the splatter guard and cook for an additional 7-10 minutes or until rice is soft and sticky. If using more than 1 cup of rice, you will need a longer cooking time.
