Cool you're getting an assortment of rice. Personally I don't much like the really cheap american rice, but it's fun to experiment. Some of them seem to have a really weak grain, if that makes sense. If there is a trader joe's in your area, they have pretty decent variety of rices, and good prices too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 Personally, I always rinse all rice to remove " debris " that may not be visible to the naked eye. My BF thought that would rinse all the vitamins off, but I believe he is thinking of " enriched " white rice, which I rarely eat. I would rather rinse it anyway, as I don't plan my nutrition around enriched items. Molly --- kastex4 wrote: > So I don't need to " rinse " the basmati? Only the > shorter grains > like Jasmine?
