Filipino Biko Sweet Sticky Rice Recipe
Posted on 11. Wed, 2011 by admin in Asian Recipes, Asian Snacks, Filipino, GF-Adaptable, Sweets
Biko is like a soft, warm, sticky rice cake. It uses sweet rice or sticky rice. It is sometimes called glutinous rice because it gets gluey when cooked but it contains no gluten. It’s a different kind of grain and often, attempts to substitute other kinds of rice for sweet or sticky rice just don’t yield the same results.
