Jasmine long grain, Short Grain or Brown: Which Jasmine Rice Do You Need?
Rice falls into a handful of types, and they cook to different textures, so they are not always interchangeable in a recipe.
Jasmine — Long grain
Naturally fragrant, soft and fluffy with a slight cling. The everyday table rice of Southeast Asia, and the usual pick for fried rice and curries.
Medium & short grain — Short grain
Stickier and rounder, used for sushi, rice bowls and dishes where the rice needs to hold together.
Brown rice — Whole grain
The bran layer is left on, so it takes longer to cook and has a chewier texture and nuttier flavour.
Glutinous or sticky rice — Short grain
Soaked and steamed rather than boiled, and much stickier again. Used for sticky rice desserts and as a staple in parts of Southeast Asia.
Jasmine rice is commonly used with Thai, Vietnamese, Malaysian and Chinese dishes, and for steamed rice, fried rice and stir-fries. If you want the grains to hold together for sushi or a rice bowl, a short grain is the usual choice instead.
10kg or 20kg: Which Bag Should You Buy?
Larger bags can mean fewer reorders, but they also require more storage space and need to be used within their best-before date. A rough guide:
One or two people — 10kg
Easier to store in a pantry or under a bench, and gets used within a sensible timeframe.
A family cooking rice most nights — 20kg
Fewer reorders across the year, and one delivery instead of several.
Flats and shared houses — 20kg
Splits well between flatmates and suits households that cook in volume.
First time buying this rice — 10kg
Try the smaller bag first, then move up to 20kg once you know it suits your cooking.
As a rough yardstick, an uncooked cup of rice serves about two people — so a 20kg bag is a several-month supply for most families rather than a year's worth. If you're unsure, start with the 10kg and move up on your next order.
How to Cook Jasmine Rice
Rinse the rice until the water runs clear — this washes off surface starch, which affects how much the cooked grains stick together. Cook it with roughly 1 to 1.25 parts water per part rice, covered, until the water is absorbed, then rest it off the heat for about 10 minutes before fluffing with a fork. Where the packaging gives different instructions, follow the packaging.
For fried rice, cook it a day ahead and chill it. Chilled cooked rice is commonly used for fried rice because the grains are drier and easier to separate in the pan.
It suits:
- Steamed rice as a side for curries and stews
- Fried rice, using rice cooked and cooled beforehand
- Stir-fries and rice bowls
- Asian and Pacific dishes — Thai, Vietnamese, Malaysian, Chinese and Island cooking
- Everyday family meals and meal prep
- Lunchboxes and batch cooking
