Types of Rice Explained!
In this video I go through the differences between the 3 most common types of rice eaten in Asia - Japanese short grain (aka sushi rice), jasmine, and basmati rice. We cover taste/texture/aroma comparison, how to cook each type of rice, and when to choose which type of rice for your meal.
Since I major in Thai cuisine, I’ve mostly talked about Thai rice, but many have asked me over the years about other kinds of rice, so I hope this video will help clarify all those questions!
