Reply:Jasmine Rice is good with anything!! Anything you normally make with rice, you can use Jasmine Rice.
Reply:lentils are good with jasmine rice. . .
Reply:I suggest to keep the lovely white color, add only salt and then cook in a rice cooker. If you have white stock, that will add flavour without color. Also, you can make it light and rich with coconut milk and then fluff it up before serving.
Reply:I use it all the time, and do Chinese Stir fry with it. It is a lovely rice. You can also put a bit of Cumin with it to colour it. Add raisins





Look for Chinese Stir Fry recipes on the net.





Also, can be used for Sushi.
