FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
How long does raw white rice last?
If kept dry and protected from pests, raw white rice has an almost indefinite shelf life.
Should I wash rice before cooking?
Yes, rinsing removes surface starch which prevents the rice from becoming overly sticky or gummy.
Is rice gluten-free?
Yes, all natural forms of rice are gluten-free, making it safe for those with celiac disease.
What is the best substitute for rice?
Quinoa, millet, barley (if gluten is okay), or cauliflower rice are excellent alternatives.
Can I freeze raw rice?
While unnecessary for shelf life, you can freeze raw rice to kill any potential grain weevil eggs.
How do I know if raw rice has gone bad?
Check for signs of moisture, mold, an off-smell, or the presence of small insects (weevils).
Does rice contain arsenic?
Rice can absorb arsenic from soil; rinsing and cooking in excess water can help reduce levels.
What is the difference between raw and parboiled rice?
Parboiled rice is partially boiled in the husk, which drives nutrients into the grain before milling.
