How to Make Sticky Rice

         This post will show you how to make Thai sticky rice. This is how Thai or Laotian people make the sticky rice. I heard that you can make one in the microwave too. I haven't tried it yet, but I'll let you know if it works the same like this one so you don't have to buy all of this stuff. 

 Things you need;

• Thai bamboo basket
• Thai sticky rice cooking pot
•  lid for the bamboo basket
• 4 cups Thai sticky rice
•  water

 1. Soak the sticky rice in the water. You need the water level above the rice around 3 inches. Soak it at least 6 hours, but if you don't have much time you can use warm water to soak the rice for a couple hours.

 2. Rinse 5 cups of water into the pot.

3. Put the soaked rice into bamboo basket. Then put the basket on top of the pot.

 4. cover the pot with lid. If you don't have the same lid I have, you can use whatever lid or plate you have to cover the basket as long as it fit and cover the whole opening area of the basket. Use the highest heat to boil. Boil 15-20 minutes.

5. Flip the rice over and continue cooking for 5 minutes.

6. When the rice is done, remove it from the basket. You can put the rice in the container,but make sure you put the lid on it otherwise you sticky rice would dry out.
