Ideal for both sweet and savory dishes, Sticky Rice is a staple in Southeast Asian cuisines. It’s easy to digest, energy-rich, and versatile, making it perfect for desserts, dumplings, or main courses. Its distinctive texture and mild flavor pair well with coconut milk, fruits, and spicy curries alike.
Sticky Rice has been cultivated in Southeast Asia for over 2,000 years and plays a vital role in the culinary and cultural traditions of countries like Thailand, Laos, and Cambodia. It is often used in religious ceremonies, festivals, and family gatherings, symbolizing prosperity and unity.
