Method
Prepare the Sticky Rice
- 1
Soak 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.

Steam 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 the grains are translucent and tender.

Mix with Coconut Milk
In a small saucepan, combine the coconut milk, sugar, and salt. Heat over low heat until the sugar dissolves. Once the rice is cooked, transfer it to a bowl and pour the coconut milk mixture over it. Stir gently to combine and let it sit for about 15 minutes.
