It's sometimes also called glutinous rice. I get short grain rice in my supermarket (Alexander's on Broad St. in Nashua NH) in the rice section right next to the Uncle Ben's. You can also get short grain rice in oriental grocery stores. Sometime oriental rice is packaged with talc as a preservative, if this is the case you have to rinse the rice to get rid of the talc. Just rinse it in cold water until the water runs clear. If you want to make it even stickier, just overcook it. Don Sharp Digital Equipment Corp. ...decwrl!dec-rhea!dec-farmer!sharp
