FoodShould Rice Be Washed Before Cooking? The Myths & Truths by liljboy(op): 2:32pm On Jul 01, 2015
This is not a straightforward questions, so I
would answer YES and NO. You ask why? Often,
we only do things because that is the way it
has always been done and do not bother to ask,
“why?” Such is the case with the issue of
rinsing of rice in water before we cook. Some
people even soak or parboil the rice and change
the water after some minutes of cooking – like
we recommended you do with beans if
you don’t want it to make you fart after eating.
.
To explain my YES to prior washing of
rice.. .

.
Rinsing rice has been done for ages to rid the
grains of surface starches, prevents clumping,
and yields a clean, fresh taste. If you rinse
rice very well, the cooked rice will have a
reduced likelihood of clumping together
because you have removed some of the total
starch present (surface starch).
.
Some types of rice from some parts of the
world are processed with talc -a mineral made
up of hydrated magnesium silicate in order to
give it a whiter and cleaner appearance. These
types of rice need a rinse to remove this talc.
Sometimes when rice has been packed and
stored for long, you see some kind of dust on
their surface when you take them out, washing
will get rid of dusts like these and sometimes
few weevils in the rice.
.
To explain my NO, which also answers “if
you wash nutrients away when you wash
rice”…

.
Starch is Carbohydrate so when you wash it
away, you wash away nutrients but there is
more of that inside the rice. You may not want
to worry much about this. However, to make
milled white rice healthier and more nutritious
in countries like the United States, it is
required that processors enrich it with vitamins
and other nutrients.
.
These fortifications appear as a dusty layer on
the individual grains. If you want to also
preserve those nutrients, washing is not for you
– it is NO-NO. But if you don’t need this
nutrients, probably because you are eating your
rice with some rich vegetable sauce and other
nutritious foods, you can wash it off.
Conclusively, rinsing rice prior to cooking or not
depends on what you want out of your rice but
I do it because I cannot distinguish between a
dust that comes as a result of fortification and
that which is there as a result of dirt.
