To soak your rice, pop one cup of rice into 1 Â½ cups water with 2 tablespoons of some type of acid (I use lemon juice as I always have a lemon in my kitchen, but you can also use yoghurt, kefir or vinegar). Soak the rice overnight, then drain and cook as you normally would.
Hi Karen, I have never made sticky rice on its own but I have made it for sushi. I usually buy short grain or medium short grain. I definitely do not soak it because the starch helps it stay sticky. I use about 1 cup of rice with 1.5 cups of water and cook it like other rice. I think put 1/4 cup rice vinegar and 1/4 cup sugar and 1 teaspoon of salt and cook that separately. Once the rice is cooked I let it sit for about 10 minutes and then fold in the rice vinegar/sugar mixture.
