We can use rice water.
Rice water is the water left in the pot where we washed the rice. Some trace elements from the rice remain in this water, including calcium, phosphorus, and so on. We can use it to water flowers because it has a certain stimulating effect and to wash the rice.
We can also use it to clean fruits and vegetables because rice water has a low acid content, so we can use it to clean fruits and vegetables. We can break down pesticide residues on fruits and vegetables and then rinse them with clean water. The benefit of this procedure will make the fruits healthier for consumption.
We can use the water to clean dishes, effectively removing grease from the surface because rice water is acidic, and the molecules present in the water can separate oil stains.
We can also use it to clean purchased meat or seafood with a strong fishy odor. We simply add a little salt to the rice water, as this eliminates the fishy smell and makes the food cook more deliciously. It can also remove rust, whiten clothes, and other benefits.
Seasoning the water with salt is essential.
We add a little salt to enhance the rice’s gluten content and also stimulate the rice’s fragrance. Rice produced this way will have a chewy, fragrant flavor and will not be sticky. Starch is the main ingredient in white rice.
When it’s too hot, vinegar can also prevent rice from spoiling by increasing the growth of the rice. Although when steaming rice, we don’t need to add too much vinegar; we only add 2 or 3 drops of white vinegar per kilogram of rice.
