[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Rinse rice? Why? I am boiling it[/quote] You rinse long- and medium-grain rice to remove the excess starch. You soak it (different than rinsing) to improve texture and reduce cooking time.[/quote] This. There is excess starch dust/residue over from the milling process. If you cook it, it acts like a glue, glopping your grains together. A few quick rinses removes it and helps ensure you have free flowing grains hat will separate after cooking. [/quote]
