I sent my roommate out to get me rice to make Onigiri with (silly me, I did not specify which kind of rice) and she brought back jasmine rice. I cooked it as I would normally make my sticky rice (steamed in my rice cooker with just enough water to cover it), but it is not sticking together when I form an Onigiri. I hate to throw this big pot of rice out, so can someone tell me how to make it stick?
Thanks!
How do I get jasmine rice to stick together?
Jasmine, like other long grain rices are NOT supposed to stick together. For sticky rice use short grain rice.

Reply:I really don't think you'll be able to, especially now that it's cooked. Unfortunately you do need the right rice for sushi. Not only for the consistency but the texture and taste are different too.
