How To Make Sticky Rice

Rinse 2 cups of glutinous rice under cold water until the water runs clear.

Soak the rinsed rice in water for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.

Drain the soaked rice and place it in a bamboo steamer lined with cheesecloth.

Fill a pot with water and bring it to a boil, then reduce to a simmer.

Place the bamboo steamer over the pot, making sure the water does not touch the rice.

Cover the steamer with a lid and steam the rice for about 25-30 minutes, or until the rice is translucent and sticky.

Remove the rice from the steamer and let it sit for a few minutes before serving.
