Heather thought it was sweet. She doesn't like sweet.

Indeed, the ingredients listed seven grams of sugar.

Americans are now adding sugar to salsa and mother fucking sushi for fuck sake.

On a recent family Zoom, three of us wondered aloud: What is jasmine rice?

How would you know if you were eating jasmine rice?

It is a fragrant, tender, long grain rice. The aroma is similar to basmati rice. It is preferred in the Philippines, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Viet Nam ...

Thai Jasmine Rice printed on the bag is a dead give away. Far East market should have it at a good price. Some Aldi's stores sell it cheap. Goya markets a Thai Jasmine rice.

Yes.
https://www.thekitchn.com/what-gives-jasmine-and-basmati-rice-their-fragrance-227910

Fragrance is a better word. Jasmine and Basmati are both fragrant long grain rices with light,  fluffy textures. Basmati has a much  longer grain and is less sticky.

Both are good alone if you want to serve something over rice, such as a curry or lentils.

Neither is the rice for sushi. It would fall apart. Not really good for authentic risotto either.

I've had a lot of jasmine and basmati rice n my life. I never realized either had a fragrance.

I have a 5 lb. bag of the Aldi jasmine rice. Perhaps I'll sniff it.

Cook it  and the unique fragrance will fill the room. I use a rice cooker. A little less  than 2 cups water to 1 cup rice. No salt or oil.  Simple and fast. Soaking does not hurt it. Some like less water for a fluffier rice.

Same, but Rob has issues with his sense of smell since his head is stuck up his own ass.  Although maybe not anymore since hes been cleaned out.

I do find a lot of rice cookers. I've never been tempted to adopt them.

Unfortunately, they're not cherished by local social services agencies, either.

Anyway, I gather the difference between rice and*other* rice is an effable smell. Or perhaps it's ineffable. 

Cool.
