✦ Aromatic floral fragrance
✦ Soft sticky texture
✦ Selenium contributor
✦ Classic Thai cuisine base
Boiled Thai fragrant (jasmine) rice is white rice with a soft, slightly sticky texture and characteristic floral aroma from 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline. Cooked, it has a higher glycaemic index than basmati; it provides selenium and modest B vitamins as a refined grain.

Preparation note
Use cooked Thai rice as a base for curries, stir-fries, and rice dishes. Cooling leftover rice overnight increases resistant starch; reheat thoroughly.
