SRI Thai Jasmine Rice 5lb

Jasmine rice is a long grain rice native to Thailand with a delicate floral and buttery scent aimed after the sweet-smelling jasmine flower. The secret to cooking it perfectly is getting the right ratio of water to rice.

Typically, the instructions on the package call for 1-1/2 cups water for every 1 cup of rice.

That’s fine if you like your rice “al dente” but I prefer mine soft, so I always add a bit more water.

Many recipes call for rinsing the grains before cooking.
