Upland Glutinous Rice

 - Uses :
     ✦ Lai Chau glutinous rice is a type of rice that, once tasted, will be remembered forever. Although not as widely advertised as other types of glutinous rice, Lai Chau glutinous rice is still chosen by many customers. The grains are large, sticky, fragrant, and the cooked rice is not clumpy. It is used for making sticky rice dishes and wrapping banh chung (Vietnamese rice cakes). It is recommended to soak the glutinous rice for 12-15 hours before steaming. The shop guarantees that the rice is authentic and not mixed with other varieties.
   How to steam sticky rice :
     + Soaking method: Wash the rice thoroughly and soak it in lukewarm water, covering the rice by 5-10 cm, for 12-15 hours. Change the water every 5 hours to prevent the rice from turning sour.
     + Steaming method: Drain the rice and rinse it gently (do not wash it again as the grains will break). Steam the rice in a steamer for about 30-45 minutes, then spread it out on a tray to cool. When ready to eat, steam it again for a second time, drizzle with coconut milk, chicken fat, or cooking oil, and steam for about 15 minutes to complete a delicious sticky rice dish.
