HINODE Royal Fan Sweet Rice (also known as glutinous rice) is used in traditional Asian cooking. Its extra sticky texture and pure opaque color are ideal for making rice balls, cakes, dumplings and pastries. Contrary to its name, sweet rice does not contain gluten but rather high levels of a starch called amylopectin.
HINODE Royal Fan Sweet Rice can be easily prepared on the stove top or in a rice cooker. For more traditional preparations, consider soaking sweet rice for 4 hours, draining the water out, and steaming it in a bamboo rice basket until soft.
