Performance Foodservice proudly presents Contigo® Imported Thai Jasmine Rice. Contigo® Imported Thai Jasmine Rice is an aromatic “long grain” rice where each grain is about four times as long as it is wide. It is sourced from Thailand, which provides an ideal growing environment with flowing rivers and waterways. Jasmine rice is a favorite multipurpose rice. It is used widely in Southeast Asian cooking, Asian or Middle Eastern markets, and is a preferred premium rice in Latin and Hispanic restaurants.
