Riz Gluant, commonly known as sticky rice or glutinous rice, is a staple in many Southeast Asian cuisines, including Thai, Vietnamese, and Lao. This unique variety of rice is characterized by its short grains and distinctive sticky texture when cooked, a result of its high amylopectin starch content. Traditionally used in savory dishes and desserts, Riz Gluant serves as an excellent accompaniment to flavorful meats, vegetables, and coconut-based sweets. While it is naturally gluten-free and provides energy through complex carbohydrates, it is lower in fiber and nutrients compared to whole grains like brown rice. Moderation is key, as its high glycemic index can impact blood sugar levels. However, it remains a satisfying and versatile ingredient for occasional indulgence in traditional recipes and celebrations.
