Sticky Rice, also known as Glutinous rice, is on the menu today. This dual-purpose dish is a delightfully helpful addition to anyone’s repertoire of recipes. It easily accommodates a vegetarian or meat-eating palate. Combining the black-eyed peas (beans) with the chicken adds necessary dietary fiber, which is found to be lacking in chicken. This supplementing provides essential nutrients for a balanced diet. Another quality of glutinous rice is its ability to be molded into shapes, a handy attribute for food presentation.
