$11.99 CAD
Golden Pacific Jasmin rice is an aromatic long grain rice that has a light, almost floral flavour.
It’s a staple in our pantry because it is easy to prepare, and you can adjust as necessary depending on the outcome you are wishing for. This fragrant rice has great flavour and texture. While we love jasmin rice with Thai sauces, we also enjoy it as a side dish.
