Brown Jasmine Rice

Real jasmine rice comes from Thailand and is called Hom Mali, which means white flower. However, this rice is unpolished brown rice and is therefore a brownish colour. Brown rice has a more intense flavour than polished rice, but is also characterised by a floral aroma. The cooking time of brown rice is approximately 40 to 50 minutes.
