This crop is known as sticky or sweet rice. Regardless of the name, it is a round rice that is immediately recognizable by its sticky glue-like texture.
This quality of rice is due to the lack of the amylose component. Unlike long-grain rice, which contains 19-23% amylose, sticky rice contains a maximum of 1%.
Hulled sweet rice is completely opaque, unlike other types of rice, which are slightly transparent when raw. Compared to longer varieties, shiny rice requires the least amount of cooking water.
Although it has no sweetness, sticky rice is often called sweet because it is used in Asian cuisine to make desserts.
Here are three of the most famous sticky rice dishes you should try sometime.
