Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup glutinous rice (sweet rice)
  • 2 cups water
  • ½ tsp salt

Method
 

  1. Soak the rice in warm water for 20 minutes, then drain well.
  2. Combine the drained rice, 2 cups water, and salt in a medium saucepan.
  3. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce to low, cover tightly, and cook for 15 minutes. Turn off the heat and let rest covered for 5 minutes.
  4. Fluff with a fork and serve immediately.

Notes

For the stickiest texture, do not rinse the rice before soaking. The 5-minute rest after cooking helps the grains firm up into clean clumps.
