Sweet rice? Wendy

glutinous rice = sticky rice = sushi rice = sweet rice = Chinese sweet

rice = waxy rice = botan rice = mochi rice = Japanese rice = pearl

rice Equivalents: One cup dried rice yields two cups cooked rice.

Notes: Despite its name, this rice isn't sweet and it doesn't

contain gluten. Instead, it's a very sticky, short-grain rice that is

widely used by Asians, who use it to make sushi and various desserts.

You can buy this as either white or black (actually a rust color)

rice. Substitutes: risotto rice (works well in sushi) OR

short-grain rice (This also works well in sushi, as long as you use

white rice. Brown short-grain rice doesn't stick together as well.)

OR medium-grain rice (Also good for sushi)

 

Have you got an Asian store near you? If not risotto rice (arborio

rice) might work :)

 

Peace,

Diane

Picture yourself in a boat on a river,

With tangerine trees and marmalade skies

Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly,

A girl with kaleidoscope eyes.
