So What Exactly Is Sticky Rice, Anyway?

Sticky rice or glutinous rice is a separate breed of rice from common white rice, and it all boils down to a component of starch. Glutinous rice contains just one component of starch, called amylopectin, while other kinds of rice contain both molecules that make up starch: amylopectin and amylose. There’s more to it than that, of course — namely that it’s amazingly fun to eat.
