Recipe Suggestions

Traditionally, Jasmine Rice is used in Southeast Asian cuisine such as Thai, but on account of its fluffy texture and fragrant flavor, it makes a great addition to a wide variety of other common dishes.

Try it in rice salads, rice bowls, oven-baked casseroles, soups or give any meal an international touch like Mango Sticky Rice, Korean Beef Lettuce Wraps, chicken and rice filled enchiladas or Spanish rice. The long grains also make this rice ideal for stir fries and fried rice dishes as the rice cooks evenly rather than clumping together.

It also makes for delectable desserts like rice pudding, milkshakes and even Mexican-inspired horchata.

Jasmine Rice vs. Basmati Rice

While both are long-grain fragrant rice varieties, Basmati Rice is longer and tends to cook up larger than Jasmine. Thai Jasmine has a subtle buttery aroma and cooks up with a soft, slightly sticky texture. Basmati has a fragrant and subtle floral aroma that cooks up fluffy and a bit more separate.
