3 years ago I had a Korean friend who's mother made this special rice. It was white but insanely sticky. You could roll it into little balls and it was delecious. Does anybody know the name of this rice?How to cook it? I'd love to know. Thanks.

The Traditional Method Using a Steamer:
Soak the sticky rice in enough water to cover the rice for at least an hour and even overnight. Take your steamer, put water in the bottom and cover the steam section with cheese cloth. Pour the sticky rice on the cheesecloth, cover with the lid and put it on the stove on medium to high heat. The sticky rice should take about a 20 minutes of steaming to cook and will become translucent when done.
The Microwave Method:
I learned this method from my friend who has mastered microwave cooking to such a high level of proficiency that she has earned the title 'the microwave queen'.
Soak the sticky rice for 10 minutes in warm water in a bowl. Soaking the rice is very important. I have tried this method without soaking the rice first and it was disastrous. The rice was undercooked and inedible. The water level should be just above the rice, which comes out to be 1 cup of rice and a little over 1 cup of water (about 10% more). I recommend using a non-plastic container because you may melt the plastic in the microwave. Cover the bowl with a dish and cook in microwave for at full power 3 minutes. Stir the rice around to move the rice from the top to the bottom. You will notice that some of the rice is translucent or cooked and some still has white center or the uncooked portion.
Heat it up again for another 3 minutes. Check and see if it is done. When cooked, all the rice should be translucent. If it needs more cooking, I recommend heating up and checking every 3 minutes or so. How long it takes to cook really depends on your microwave.
Sticky rice is frequently eaten with a meat dish and then a broad variety of vegetables

Hard to believe but it's called sticky rice. You can use regular white rice. Go to foodtv.com and enter sitcky rice for recipe search.

it's steamed rice, you need a rice steamer, or thats what we always used. I don't know if there is any other way to make it, we also called it sticky rice. It's what people in hawaii always eat, and it's used to make sushi, very good stuff!!

Actually I believe it's called sticky rice (call it like you see it :). Here is a recipe I found http://www.thaifoodandtravel.com/ingredients/stickyr.html
but google it if the recipe is not to your taste. You can also try asking your friend to ask her mother for the recipe.

i am sorry to hear of your condition. maybe you should speak to a doctor other than your own to get a second opinion as to what options you have. exercises seem not to be an option and with your medical condition there is only so much you can eat maybe you should look into gastric bypass surgery. it has it's risks and it has also been quite a successful form of weight loss to the right candidates. good luck God bless
