Nearly half of the world's population eats different varieties of it every day. The origin of this rice can be traced back to Southeast Asia. Our Natural Khasi Sticky Rice, a glutinous rice, from Meghalaya is actually naturally gluten-free! It is known as Khaw Pnah or as Khaw Shulia in the local dialect. High in amylopectin and low in amylose, it is also favoured by the tribals to make varieties of excellent, local rice beer. This sticky rice is sourced from tribal farmers who still follow traditional practices of not using chemical fertilisers or pesticides.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhy eat it\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEasy to digest, sticky rice is mildly sweet and chewy.
