Rinse the rice 2-3 times until water runs clear, then use a 1:1.2 ratio of rice to water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 18-20 minutes. Let it rest for 10 minutes before fluffing with a fork for the perfect sticky texture that customers at Korean supermarket Lisbon love.

This rice works perfectly for traditional Korean dishes like bibimbap and kimchi fried rice, Japanese sushi and onigiri rice balls, or simple steamed rice as a side dish. You can also use it for rice pudding or any recipe requiring short-grain rice with a naturally sweet flavor.

This sticky rice pairs excellently with Korean barbecue, stir-fried vegetables, curry dishes, and grilled fish. Many shoppers at Asian supermarket Europe enjoy it alongside kimchi, pickled vegetables, or any saucy dishes since the rice absorbs flavors beautifully while maintaining its glossy appearance.
