Jasmine Rice is a medium length grain with a sweet, delicate aroma and flavour; and a slightly sticky, yet separating and fluffy texture. Certified Organic, this rice has no added preservatives and is non-GMO. Quick and easy to prepare, Jasmine rice is most often associated with Asian cooking but adds wonderful flavour and aroma to any number of sweet or savoury dishes.

How to Use:

Jasmine Rice is wonderful served with Asian inspired soups, curries and stir-fries. Create delectable rice balls or use to add a unique flavour to paella and pilaffs. Once cooled, the separate grains are ideal for salads or fried rice. For a quick and delicious rice pudding for breakfast or dessert, simply re-heat rice in dairy, oat or nut milk until creamy; with nutmeg, cinnamon and a dash of maple or coconut syrup.

Serve as is, or with fresh berries, yoghurt or stewed fruit. To cook delicious, fluffy Jasmine Rice either steam, boil or use the reduction method. Saffron is delectable with this rice and can be added to the pot at the beginning of the cooking process.

To preserve the unique aroma of Jasmine it is best not to salt cooking water – season if required after cooking. Rinse rice, then add to boiling water (1:2) and simmer for about 12-15 minutes, or until tender.

Remove from heat, drain, then leave covered for a further 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork. For reduction, fill cold water about 1.5 cm above rice and simmer, covered, until water has evaporated, about 18 minutes. Let stand for further 5 minutes, fluff and serve.
