Rinsing rice does nothing

Rice is 100% starch, bitch. You can't wash it away.

It's to rinse off any dirt, bugs, or other debris that could have gotten into your rise bag at the time of packaging. Yes bugs comes in your package from the store no matter what country you are in.

>>17562330
how? rinse your rice in a bowl, few changes of water, your rice sinks then you just pour off excess water. washing rice in a sieve is a waste of time, water and does not have the same effect as soaking it. proper curry chefs always soak their rice

yeah. imagine adding a tea spoon or something of corn starch to your rice. this is an exaggerated example but it would make it gloopy.

Did you call the manufacturer and get a refund? Cause you're supposed to. They like to be informed when things go wrong.

[Anonymous No.17564102]

>>17562311
You can see the starch being rinsed off. Put rice in a bowl of water, stir it, water will get cloudy, pour cloudy water out and repeat. After about 4 or so rinses the water will run clear.
Also just from an anecdotal standpoint you can tell the difference. The rice won't be as mushy. Not that there's anything wrong with mushy rice, if that's what you want then don't rinse.

[Anonymous No.17564115]

>>17562311
There's looser starch on the outside, retard. That's why italians rinse their pasta before cooking it in boiling water, same concept.

I sent them a couple of videos along with the pictures. I wouldn't have slept well knowing someone else was getting that batch.
The first representative I spoke to tried to make it out like it was somehow my fault, but the second one was a lot more accommodating.
They shipped me more rice. Bug free this time.

Their eggs are often in rice, pasta, and other food products. They are so small you can't see them. If you get a lucky bag of rice sitting and let it sit for too long you might open it to a nasty surprise

How long is too long? Again, I do not see these bugs when I wash my rice even after it was sitting for four months.

[Anonymous No.17564840]

To get the texture of the rice correct, you must wash it. With Chinese rice, anyway. Otherwise it can go gungy. The stuff about contaminants is probably bullshit but better safe than sorry. What really gets me is the obsession with washing meat. The Chinese literally wash their meat, then boil it until it's mostly cooked, and THEN start making the actual dish. They're so squeamish.

It's a texture thing more than anything. In Korean cooking they sometimes save the rice washing water to add body to soups or stews, the same way you would add your pasta cooking water to a pasta sauce to emulsify and thicken it.
