[QUOTE="CleverNickName, post: 9377867, member: 50987"] Okay. Brace yourself. I didn't make the mango sticky rice myself. I got it from a food cart on PSU campus called Pompuii, so I didn't have the recipe. But I went there for lunch again today, because I needed another sticky rice fix, and while I was there I asked for the recipe. I was only kidding around--I've been eating there for years and I have a good rapport with the vendor--but she took me seriously! I dictated it into my phone, then typed up the recording here: [INDENT=2][COLOR=rgb(44, 130, 201)][FONT=georgia][SIZE=4]"Rinse the rice really good, and soak it overnight in the refrigerator. Rinse it again right before you use it. And you have to use glutinous rice, the ordinary white rice won't work. Get glutinous rice, sometimes called sticky rice. Anyway, rinse it good, then soak it and rinse it again. Don't boil it, you steam it.
