Jasmine Rice

Jasmine rice is a long-grain aromatic rice mainly grown in Thailand. It is popular due to its soft texture, natural floral fragrance, similar to pandan or popcorn, making it a common ingredient for curries and stir-fries. It's a type of aromatic rice that cooks up fluffy but clumps together more than basmati rice, and comes in white, brown, black, and red varieties, though white is most common and versatile across many Asian and fusion dishes. At Beagley Copperman, we offer Jasmine rice sourced directly from trusted Asian brands, including Siam Pure in 10kg and 20kg bags, from Absornsawan in catering formats, and from Spoon & Spoon in 1kg, 5kg, 10kg, and 20kg packs, making it suitable for supermarkets and wholesale supply.

Is jasmine rice the same as basmati?

No, Basmati and jasmine rice are both categorized as long-grain rice varieties. They are slender and cook up light and separate, unlike short-grain rice, which tends to clump together when cooked. The key difference between these types of rice is that jasmine rice is slightly softer than basmati and holds more moisture. Due to this fact, it’s best used in dishes like fried rice and stir-fries. 

What pack sizes of jasmine rice sell best in Europe?

In the EU, retailers typically sell 5kg and 10kg bags to household customers, while 20kg formats are preferred by restaurants, takeaways, and catering businesses. At Beagley Copperman, we offer multiple sizes, allowing wholesalers to serve both retail shelves and professional kitchens efficiently.

Glutinous rice

Glutinous rice, commonly known as sticky rice or sweet rice, is a rice variety that becomes very sticky when cooked. This is due to its high amylopectin starch content. It is widely used in Asian desserts, steamed rice dishes, dumplings, and festive foods. For oriental stores and Asian restaurants, we supply glutinous rice from Kaijae Rice in 1kg, 5kg, and 20kg formats, as well as from Siam Pure and Spoon and Spoon in 5kg, 10kg, and 20kg sizes, supporting both retail shelves and high-volume catering.

What is sticky rice used for?

Sticky rice is used in Asian desserts such as sticky rice with mango, as well as savory dishes including sticky rice with grilled meats, stuffed rice parcels, and steamed dishes common in Thai and Lao cuisine. Its unique texture makes it a must-have product for oriental stores and Asian restaurants.

Sushi rice 

Sushi rice is a short-grain rice developed specifically for Japanese cuisine. It offers controlled stickiness, allowing rice grains to bind together while remaining light and glossy. This balance is essential for sushi rolls, nigiri, and rice bowls. Our sushi rice from Miyamoto is supplied in 5kg, 10kg, and 20kg bags, making it suitable for sushi restaurants, supermarket sushi counters, and wholesale distribution.  

Is sticky rice the same as sushi rice? 

No, sticky rice and sushi rice are not the same. While both types of rice are sticky, they have unique characteristics and are used for different purposes. Sticky rice is high in amylopectin, making it extremely sticky when cooked and commonly used in various Asian cuisines for desserts, including mango sticky rice pudding. Sushi is a short-grain rice that has a more balanced stickiness than sticky rice, which allows for shaping sushi rolls and the perfect texture for poke bowls.

Rice flakes

Rice flakes are flattened rice grains, also known as Poha, beaten rice, pounded rice, or pressed rice, and are traditionally used in Vietnamese and Southeast Asian cuisine. They are commonly used for desserts, snacks, and as toppings for savory dishes. Rice flakes feature in many traditional and festive recipes and can be eaten fresh, toasted, or steamed, depending on the dish. Products such as square rice flakes from Bich Chi and green rice flakes from Minh Hao are popular with oriental retailers and tokos due to their authenticity, long shelf life, easy preparation, and reliable shelf stability.

What are rice flakes used for?

Rice flakes are used in desserts, toppings, and traditional Asian snacks, and for quick, light meals like breakfast porridge, savory snacks (poha/upma with spices and veggies), thickening soups, and absorbing liquids fast for speedy cooking of dishes like rice pudding or as a base for cereal with milk and fruit, offering a nutritious, easily digestible energy source.

Brown rice

Brown rice is a whole-grain rice that retains the bran layer, providing higher fiber, vitamins, and minerals compared to white rice. It has a slightly nutty flavor and firm texture, which consumers with dietary restrictions appreciate. We offer the best in brown rice, directly sourced from Asia and the USA, from brands such as Kokuho Rose and Siam Pure rice, offering premium-quality brown rice suitable for supermarkets, health food stores, and catering suppliers seeking nutritious menu options.

What pack sizes of brown rice are best for retail and foodservice?

Retailers commonly stock brown rice in 5kg packs for household consumers, while 10kg and 20kg formats are preferred by restaurants, caterers, and foodservice operators. Offering multiple pack sizes allows wholesalers and supermarkets to serve both consumer and professional markets efficiently while maximizing category coverage.

Long-grain rice

Long-grain rice is a type of rice with a long, slender grain that remains separate and fluffy when cooked. Unlike short or medium-grain rice, it contains less surface starch, which prevents the grains from sticking together. This makes long-grain rice ideal for dishes where a light, loose texture is required. It is widely used in restaurants, catering, and international cuisines, including Asian, Middle Eastern, and Western dishes. Long-grain rice is commonly chosen for pilafs, fried rice, curries, and buffet service due to its consistent cooking performance and ability to hold well during service. Products such as Mr Jackson's long grain rice are perfect for an A-grade red rice, offering consistency, yield, and versatility. These rice varieties are suitable for high-volume preparation where quality and cost control are essential.

What pack sizes of long grain rice are best for retail and catering?

At Beagley Copperman, we offer long grain rice, perfect for retail, which is commonly sold in mid-sized packs of 1kg suitable for regular household use. For food service and catering, larger formats such as 10kg and 20kg bags are preferred due to better cost efficiency, storage convenience, and consistent supply for daily operations.
