Jasmine Rice

Jasmine rice is a long-grain variety of fragrant rice (also known as aromatic rice). Jasmine rice is grown primarily in Thailand (Thai hom mali or Thai fragrant rice),Cambodia (phka rumduol or Cambodian jasmine rice),Laos, and southern Vietnam. It is moist and soft in texture when cooked, with a slightly sweet flavor. The grains cling and are some what sticky when cooked, though less sticky than glutinous rice, as it has less amylopectin. It is about three times stickier than American long-grain rice.
