GLUTNIOUS/STICKY RICE

A Delightfully Chewy and Versatile Staple

Glutinous rice, also known as sticky rice, is an integral part of Vietnamese cuisine, highly prized for its unique texture and versatility. This short-grain rice variety boasts an exceptionally high amylopectin content, which gives it a delightfully chewy and slightly sweet flavor when cooked.

Vietnamese glutinous rice is a staple in many traditional dishes, forming the base for beloved delicacies like xôi (sticky rice dishes), bánh ít (sticky rice dumplings), and bánh rán (crispy fried sticky rice balls). Its ability to bind ingredients together also makes it an excellent choice for vibrant salads, flavorful rice wraps, and savory rice cakes.

Beyond its culinary applications, glutinous rice holds cultural significance in Vietnam, often being used in religious offerings and celebratory occasions. Its sticky nature symbolizes unity and togetherness, reflecting the close-knit fabric of Vietnamese society.
