Sticky Rice Recipes

Sticky rice is a common food made from sticky glutinous rice steamed or cooked – a rustic dish which is very prevalent in many Asian countries.

It is difficult to list all kinds of sticky rice dishes in Vietnam’s cuisine in particular and other countries’ cuisines which also use rice in general, and the list below is just some most common types of sticky rice and how to make Vietnamese sticky rice:

+ Xoi Gac – Gacfruit Sticky Rice:
The first sticky rice dish I want to introduce in this list is Gacfruit sticky rice. This is one of the most popular sticky rice dishes in Vietnam. Gacfruit sticky rice is made from glutinous rice and gacfruit for creating bright red color and delicious flavor for this special and meaningful Vietnamese traditional dish. People will need to pick up the ripe Gacfruit, divided it into 2 parts and take the flesh of the fruit which covers surroundingly the red particles out, puree it with a little white wine. Then, put the softened and pureed Gacfruit flesh (including seeds) in a bowl and mix it with soaked glutinous rice. After steaming the Gacfruit sticky rice, people should remember to add a little sugar and fat to give the dish the sweetness and fatness. Although people do not use green bean when cooking Gacfruit sticky rice, they rarely forget to put finely-milled green bean on the top of the dish when they present Gacfruit sticky rice on the plate, right in the center as part of the stuffing. Gacfruit sticky rice is one of delicious, nutritious, and is very popular Vietnamese sticky rice dishes as an important worshiped dish in holidays, Tet, death anniversaries, or it can be accompanied by a suckling pig on a platter for the engagement ceremony.

+ Xoi La Dua – Pineapple Leaf Sticky Rice (Or Pandan Sticky Rice): Pandan (pineapple leaves) will be cut into smaller pieces and washed. Then, smash them and juice them to take the pandan juice; then mix the juice with sticky glutinous rice before steaming the mixture. The result we will get is a beautiful green sticky rice pot with attractive fragrance.

+ Xoi Khuc – Gnaphalium Affine Sticky Rice (Or Khuc Cake):
Gnaphalium affine sticky rice (also called Khuc cake or “xoi khuc” in Vietnamese) is made from crushed gnaphalium affine mixed with sticky glutinous rice powder, rolled with cooked milled green bean and diced fat meat, then rolled over sticky glutinous rice and put into the autoclave. Each Khuc cake is covered by a layer of sticky rice, stuffed with green bean, fat meat, and fried onion which tastes very delicious. This is actually one of the best sticky rice dishes in Vietnam.

+Xoi Lac – Peanut Sticky Rice:
Peanut sticky rice is also called “Xoi Lac” in Vietnamese – one of the most popular rustic sticky rice dishes in Vietnam. To make this dish, peanuts will be boiled until they become soft, then mixed with soaked glutinous rice and steamed as normal. According to Thach Lam – a famous writer – in his “Qua Hanoi” culinary memoir, peanut sticky rice is served as a snack. There are 2 variations of dish: almond sticky rice and cashew sticky rice.
