Chinese Restaurant-Style Sticky Rice image

I found this in Cook's Country magazine. Sticky rice we can make at home and use our chopsticks?! YAY! I've stirred, lid off, lid on, added oil, etc, to try and make my rice really sticky. There's nothing special here as far as ingredients, it's just a very simple method! Thanks Cook's Country and Chef Kelley Baker! Do not stir the rice as it cooks. The finished rice can stand off heat, covered, for up to 15 minutes. NOTE: This recipe doesn't claim to be authentic sticky rice, just a convenient method of utilizing the white rice in your pantry to make rice with a sticky consistency.
