How to Cook Tidewater Grain Carolina Gold Sticky Rice

Enjoy Tidewater Grain Carolina Gold Rice cooked as sticky rice with soups or gumbos or to use in rice cakes, arrancini or rice puddings                                                                                 

Bring 2 ½ cups salted water to a boil. 

Add 1 cup of Tidewater Grain Carolina Gold Rice (use our white rice, brown rice or a combo of the two) and stir once. Return the pot to a boil; add two bay leaves. Reduce heat to a simmer; cover and cook for 15 minutes. 

Uncover. Fluff rice with a fork, cover once again and allow to stand off the heat for 2-3 minutes. Hold in the pot if you are using or serving immediately.                                                                 

Or, if you are using the rice in another recipe; spread the cooked rice across a parchment paper lined baking pan and allow to cool.  The rice may be cooked ahead of time and kept in the fridge until you are ready to cook.
