  • This recipe uses glutinous rice (also called sticky rice), a variety that's very popular across Asia. To make sweet rice with dried fruit, start by prepping the ingredients: rinse the rice several times until the water runs clear; soak it in cold water for 10 minutes; wash and pat dry the dried apricots; wash the raisins, scald them with boiling water, and pat dry. Next, add water to the rice, bring it to a boil, and cook over low heat until tender, stirring occasionally. While the rice cooks, cut the dried apricots into small pieces. If your raisins are large, you can halve them or leave them whole. Put the cooked rice in a bowl, add the dried fruit, and stir. Serve hot or cold as a breakfast or dessert. We also like to drizzle it with honey. Enjoy!
