The effect of rice cucumber porridge

After washing rice carefully, it looks better, but the preservation rate of vitamin B1 is only about half of that of unwashed rice, and 80% of pantothenic acid, which has a detoxifying effect, will be lost. To prevent loss when washing rice, just rinse it two or three times to wash away the dust. Even if the water is turbid, it does not matter.

Since brown rice has several layers of membrane, it will not lose nutrients even if it is washed many times. However, because it contains a lot of fiber that is not easy to digest, it must be chewed carefully to avoid diarrhea caused by indigestion. Since germ rice is easy to deteriorate, it is best not to buy a large amount at one time. In order to prevent the germ from falling off, most germ rice does not need to be washed. However, since it is not sticky, it will be slightly dry and loose after cooking. It is best to eat it while it is hot.

Rice washing water can be used to blanch bamboo shoots or ferns with a strong astringent taste. It can also be used to remove the fat from dried cod or dried fish, and the effect is also quite good.

Fats and vitamins will dissolve in the rice washing water. If it has no other use, it can be used to water flowers and become high-quality fertilizer.
