The reason for rinsing is to remove excess starch to prevent the rice from becoming too sticky. If the rice is fortified with vitamins and minerals (man made process), then yes, rinsing the rice will wash away the nutrients away. Brown rice should be soaked overnight. The reason is twofold. One is soften the rice, the other is to activate the phytase in the rice that makes it more nutritious.
It depends what type of rice people. If its brown rice then yes vitamins and minerals. but if its normal white rice then you need to prewash it because of the starch and such.
Great video and explanations. Downloaded the Kambrock Rice Cooker manual. Never thought to look on youtube for a video as good as this one. Cheers n thanks.

Ok that is not how to make "Fried Rice" that is how to make "Rice" though using day old rice and not fresh is a nice tip. That's gonna help the chicken noodle soup Thing I am working on, lol. I still want the recipe to fried rice in a 6-cup rice cooker.
The finger rule doesn't work if you're only making a little rice. I make rice for one at college all the time and if I went to the knuckle, I'd have the grossest soggy rice ever.
@waffocopter the main rule I know is 1 part rice to 1 part water (for the rice cooker). Allow room for expansion, lol. On the stove as I remember is 1 part rice to 2 parts water. "part" meaning whatever means of measurement you choose, scoop, cup, etc as long as it is equal. If you are making less than a cup.
Hi, thanks for your advice. I had been trying to make fried rice after cooking it in a rice cooker. But that part taught me well about 24 hour advance in fridge before doing the fried rice to avoid mushy rice. I am trying this now in fridge for 24 hours thank you for your excellent video.
if you want nice soft rice that doesnt stick together like crazy prewash your rice until it takes on a translucent appearance. Get all that nasty starch off your rice people!!
HEY Thats How My Parents Taught THANKS FOR Doing That !! It Will Help My Friend Who Never Cook Rice Even He has been living in Hong Kong For Years !! hehe! Oh U R Cute By The Way !! :-)
It appears that you prewashed your rice before adding it to the cooker. It may help to explain how and why this is done. - rinse the rice until the water becomes significantly clearer t(to perfectly clear) to wash excess starch off the rice and avoid very stick cooked product.
does that mean u are gay too? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA........................................... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
This was the BEST TIP! I have a second had rice cooker that has no cup. so I was so confused about the measurements! Kisses to your mum!
