Episode 5: Thai Sticky Rice!
This is the second most popular rice consumed in Thailand. It’s used a lot in desserts, but we also eat it as a side dish often, especially when having barbecues. Think of this rice as our version of bread, you can eat it with meats, dip it in sauces, or just on its own! It’s especially popular in the North and the Northeast of Thailand!
