Shop products for Pearl Rice 
Unlike most rice, pearl rice should be stirred during cooking.
Pearl rice has a sticky texture when fully cooked, and is often used in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean dishes.
Varieties
Pearl rice is available in white and brown (unprocessed) forms. White rice sets off food flavours more distinctly, while brown rice has a higher fibre content and takes longer to cook.
Preparation, uses, and tips
Stir the rice during its cooking time, which takes about 20 minutes. Use it as a base for sushi, or in rice puddings.
