Ugh, reminds me of the time I grabbed the jasmine rice instead of basmati, what a gloopy mess

[–] HowManyNimons@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Perfect with a Thai green curry though.

Not when it's been soaked and overcooked into a gloopy mess.

Hmm, gloopy mess.

That's not my name.

[–] littlebluespark@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

That's porridge, more or less. Also, I don't disagree, but glue is glue. 🥲

Omg I'm so sorry 🫂

Curious, if you have basmati rice available, what are you using the jasmine rice for?

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Jasmine is my default rice for anything that doesn't call for basmati or sushi. Basically, I keep one short, one medium, and one long-grained variety on hand. (I'm not counting the arborio since that has only a single purpose for risotto.)

[–] theblueredditrefugee@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Oh interesting! We usually substitute basmati for jasmine rice bc we like the flavor better. Unless ofc it's a dessert of some kind.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

"Dessert rice" is a foreign concept to me.

We prefer the aroma of jasmine rice, but some dishes such as biryani demand basmati.

Here's a recipe for Bengali rice pudding, like my spouse's family makes, if you're interested in trying it. If you can't get your hands on the particular rice for it she says calrose works (or, failing that, sushi rice).

You'll want to run it through a translator since the recipe is in Bengali but that's how you know it's legit

Basmati not great for chopsticks.

[–] theblueredditrefugee@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 8 months ago

True, probably why chopsticks never got popular in Bharat. But ofc there's always the desi way of eating - your hands 😁

Thats why you wash your jasmine rice
