Sticky Rice

**Glutinous or sticky rice, it isn’t the same as jasmine rice**

1. Rinse rice 2-3 times, until water runs clear. Soak the rice in plenty of water for at least an hour or over night. The rice will approximately double in volume when cooked, so use approximately 3 1/2 cups for 3 people.

2. Take the steamer, put water in the bottom and cover the steamer basket with the wet cheesecloth . Drain the rice, place it in cheesecloth and wrap it up. Cover with the lid. Steam on medium high heat for 30 minutes or until soft but still firm.
