Glutinous rice, Thailand 1 kg - Golden Phoenix

Golden Phoenix Glutinous Rice is 1 kg of white sticky rice from Thailand, packed in a resealable bag. Once steamed, the grains turn soft, chewy, and sticky, which makes it the classic base for Thai mango sticky rice and Filipino rice cakes. Serve it instead of plain rice with a main meal, or as a dessert with coconut milk and fruit.

Fun Fact

Glutinous rice is also called sticky rice, and despite its name it contains no gluten. The word refers to the glue-like texture of the cooked grains, which come from a high starch content. It is traditionally steamed in a bamboo basket rather than boiled.
