Best OverallA microwave pouch of cooked Thai jasmine rice ready in ninety seconds for quick sides. One pouch serves a small meal, and the texture is softer than freshly steamed rice.
Popular PickAn American jasmine style rice in a resealable recyclable jar that cooks in about a quarter hour. It is a hybrid, so it is not true Thai jasmine.
A boil-in-bag jasmine rice that cooks with no measuring and no sticky pot to scrub. The number of bags per box is not stated, so check portions before planning a meal.
An aromatic, soft and slightly sticky long grain rice in a reusable jar, suited to stir fry, fried rice and rice pudding. Anyone wanting separate fluffy grains for pilaf may find the texture too clingy.
A fast, fragrant coconut jasmine rice side that heats in the microwave in about a minute and a half. It contains soy, and one pouch is a modest portion.
A quick coconut jasmine side for family dinners, ready in the microwave in a couple of minutes. The coconut flavor is slightly sweet, so it suits some dishes better than others.

Jasmine rice is a long grain fragrant rice from tropical rice growing regions, with a floral aroma and a soft, slightly sticky texture when cooked. It differs from basmati rice, which is longer, drier and more separate, and from short grain sushi rice, which is stickier. The first decision is whether you want white or brown jasmine rice, because brown jasmine rice keeps the bran, takes longer to cook and has a nuttier taste.
Format is the next question. Dry rice in bags is the cheapest per serving and keeps for months, while microwave pouches and boil in bag rice are convenient for quick meals but cost more. New crop jasmine rice is especially fragrant and soft.
Cooking matters for texture. Rinse jasmine rice until the water runs clear to remove surface starch, and use less water than for other long grain rice to avoid mushy results. A rice cooker makes consistent results easy.
Before buying, check whether the rice is white or brown, the bag size, the origin, whether it is a pouch or dry rice, and the cooking instructions. Store opened rice in an airtight container to keep out moisture and pantry moths, and cool leftover cooked rice quickly before refrigerating. Jasmine rice pairs naturally with curries, stir fries and grilled meats, and leftover cooked rice that has been chilled overnight makes excellent fried rice.
