Short and Sweet

Short grain rice has an almost round appearance. Short grain varieties are typically less than 1/4 inch (4–5 mm) long and 1/8 inch (2.5 mm) wide. These varieties become noticeably starchy/sticky when cooked. In general, short grain rice absorbs less water than long grain rice and is a perfect grain for sushi.

Included in this category is sweet rice flour, which is made out of short grain rice.
