Asian Sticky Rice, also known as glutinous rice, is a staple in many Asian cuisines, including Thai, Chinese, Korean, and Japanese. Despite its name, it is gluten-free and contains no wheat gluten. The rice has a distinct chewy texture and naturally clings together due to its high amylopectin content, which makes it ideal for dishes like sushi, dumplings, and desserts such as mango sticky rice. Sticky rice is a good source of carbohydrates, providing quick energy, but it is low in fiber and protein compared to other whole grains. It’s often prepared with added sugars or coconut milk in desserts, which can increase calorie content. While delicious and versatile, it's best consumed in moderation for balanced nutrition. Sticky rice is naturally free of fat and cholesterol, making it a lighter option depending on how it's prepared.
