What can replace it

  • T2 · GoodJasmine rice

    Whole grains cook up fluffier and less soft; com tam and congee lose some of their texture.

  • T2 · GoodLong-grain rice

    Firmer and less fragrant, without the soft, slightly sticky bite of broken grains.

  • T3 · In a pinchShort-grain rice

    Stickier and rounder; fine for congee, clumpy for com tam plates.
