Jasmine rice is a special variety of rice that has long grains. It grows in the mountainous regions of northeastern Thailand. If you have such rice and do not know how to prepare it, then read on and you will understand.
The secret to perfectly cooked jasmine rice lies in cooking it with very little water. With this type of rice, the proportion is 1 cup of rice to a cup and a half of water.
When the pot is placed on the stove, its lid must be tightly closed. After boiling, cook for 20 minutes on low heat. Then gently mix with a fork and leave it for 5 minutes.
While cooking, the jasmine rice does not stick together and stays very light and airy. Jasmine rice is very often served with fruit and sweet syrup.
Jasmine rice goes perfectly with pineapple or oyster sauce, as well as vegetables and fish.
However, it should not be combined with mustard and honey, because they destroy its aroma. Goes very well with seafood, but no heavier sauces as they will dull the great taste.
