Long-grain rice has slender grains that stay separate and fluffy after cooking, so this is the best choice if you want to serve rice as a side dish, or as a bed for sauces.
Basmati rice has a nutty taste and goes well with many Indian and Middle Eastern dishes. Jasmine rice is also aromatic,usually less expensive than Basmati and it goes with Thai and Vietnamese dishes.
