Wild rice. I also love a flavored long grain and wild rice mix.


Jasmine rice is another favorite.

Obviously it depends on what you are fixing.........for an elegant but simple type meal you might want jasmine or basmati. If you are doing sushi or a dessert, you want a short grain for sticky rice. For Spanish rice, I use a long grain. For those cassarole things where you cook the chicken or chops in a liquid with a soup dumped on top and rice in there and serve when the rice is done, a short grain rice is preferred.

Brown rice from the Korean store (I don't know the brand). I like how it's a little chewy and sticky.

Basmati or Jasmine though to be honest I just love all kinds of rice. I adore Risottos as well.

Basmati and jasmine. Both are delicious in their own way.
