Brenda, I guess jasmine rice is the fancy name. LOL check for tuwon shinkafa I.e rice for making swallow in the market. They have both the imported and local varieties. Anyone you use will be fine. I'm here to guide you with any other step/questions you have.

Potash is a Local Salt, majorly comprising of Sodium/Calcium Bicarbonate. Also known as Baking Soda. This salt neutralizes the acid; acetic/Lactic acid produced in the batter(mixture), when it has sat with the yeast for a longtime or overnite. And therefore results to carbonation; i.e air produced in your final attempt, making it fluffy.
