Anybody know what this is and how to make it ?? I have heard this on 3 different BBQ boards but no one has said how they make Jasmine rice??
It's a long-grain white rice grown in Thailand. It's what Thai restaurants serve. Very nice flavor, texture, and fragrance. You can usually find it in the supermarket with Asian foods. A rice cooker makes it perfect.WalterSC said:Anybody know what this is and how to make it ?? I have heard this on 3 different BBQ boards but no one has said how they make Jasmine rice??

Pigs On The Wing BBQ said:I prefer Basmati rice myself. Has a great nutty flavor and a little more texture than Jasmine. But that's just me.
They're similar. Basmati grains do not stick together much, Jasmine a little more so. If you're using rice under a curry or similar gravy-like dish, Basmati may be a better choice. If you're just eating rice, I like Jasmine better.DATsBBQ said:I too prefer Basmati over Jasmine. Usually cheaper too, depending on where you buy it. 8)Pigs On The Wing BBQ said:I prefer Basmati rice myself. Has a great nutty flavor and a little more texture than Jasmine. But that's just me.
