believe it or not, this Walmart delicious kitchen brand is even worse than Rooster.VanCityUser wrote: ↑ The rooster brand jasmine rice is pretty bad. No matter how many times you wash it, it stays sticky, and the texture of the cooked grains seems different to other brands I've used.
I'm not overly picky. Of course Ox Head is one of the best, and then I can tolerate Rooster, but wow delicious kitchen was another level down

Both brands have the green seal. We prefer the loblaws Golden Wheel, texture are much better when new (not stored for long). Currently on sale at Independent/Loblaws $14.88.GrumpyAsian wrote: ↑ It may be Thai Hom Mali as it has the green seal on the top right of the bag.
I prefer Rooster brand (the one you get a loblaws where it is Thai Hom Mali) over this brand. The Walmart panda brand is less fragrant and abit drier compared to Rooster.
That's our goto brand after the phoenix brand price got out of hand.

This sucks. Always buy Thai jasmine rice with the Thai gov seal on the good ones.

How long the grain is in comparison to basmati ?eelfliw wrote: ↑ In case anyone is wondering, the long grain Jasmine rice is typical of what you'll see in Chinese food take-outs. The rice is not as sticky as short grain rice and good for making fried rice (but stickier than Basmati). The Botan Calrose is stickier (esp if you add a little more water when cooking). Good for making sushi.

The naming is all relative. Jasmine compared to Calrose can be called long-grain because it's longer. Basmati is even longer than jasmine. But when compared to wild rice basmati isn't as long.
