Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Rice
Rinse the glutinous rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Soak the rice in water for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.
Cook the Rice
Drain the soaked rice and place it in a steamer lined with cheesecloth. Steam the rice over boiling water for about 30-40 minutes, or until it's tender and sticky.
Prepare Coconut Sauce
In a small saucepan, combine coconut milk, sugar, and salt. Heat over medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Do not boil.
Combine and Serve
Once the rice is cooked, transfer it to a serving bowl. Pour the coconut sauce over the sticky rice and gently mix. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top if desired. Serve warm.
