TODAY'S RECIPE: Biko sticky rice
Blog Commentary: Continuing with the rice theme (no I didn't have anymore leftovers). Besides we need a different kind of rice anyways. I couldn't find the malagkit rice or any sticky rice so I decided to find some sweet rice. bad decision. Find sticky rice! That is very very important. Sweet rice won't do. While the flavors might be there in the end, it's the not the same without the sticky part of the rice. I also took out the jackfruit because I didn't have any then. Plus, I don't think it's the integral part of the recipe. The sweeter, the better for me. And the jackfruit does't really add to the sweetness of the rice for me.

Video Commentary: I also noticed that the coconut milk didn't get as sticky as I would have liked it to be. So, I may change that to coconut creme or something with a thicker substance or continually add to the sugar while stirring instead of just adding everything at once. Next: Picadillo
