These comments are interesting. I have never washed rice, nor even considered it. Now I want to try it out and see what difference I can experience!
Some places mandate added minerals, which will wash off on rinse. Check the packaging.
Not that it's mission critical if you find washed rice better.My understanding has always been that the fortified grains have been treated so because they stripped out the nutrients earlier, like with bleached flour. I don't buy these products but I very well could be misinformed.
Cyanide is bad
You mean arsenic?
Lol, yes. Though I guess both are bad
aww but it tastes soo good
Does that wash off? And I always thought (arsenic) was a regional issue. I think from rice grown in SE Asia?
Apparently it's only a minimal help.
Not sure about the regional thing.
