Basmati rice is a variety of long grain Aromatic Rice from [[India]], [[Pakistan]], and [[Nepal]].

Jasmine Rice

Jasmine rice is a long grain Aromatic Rice from [[Thailand]], [[Cambodia]], [[Laos]], and southern [[Vietnam]].

It has a slightly sweet flavour, and smells of [[Pandan]] and [[Popcorn]]. It is about three times stickier than American long grain rice.

Jasmine rice is great in stir fries, with grilled or fried food items, or in soup.

Avoid using for fried rice, since it can be too soft and soggy.
