How to Store and Reheat Rice

 
​Food Blog Post by Western Rice Mills
How to Store and Reheat Rice
In this post, "How to Store and Reheat Rice", we cover some ideas on how we could keep rice well in a container. Also, we explore how we could reheat (and reuse leftover or cooked) rice. ​​

If you use rice most days of the week, you must learn how to store rice in many simple ways. It would be, indeed, practical and convenient to do that. You would be able to access rice with ease whenever you think about cooking your main dish (or simply preparing any meal that would blend with rice).
Here are some tips for ensuring that you are keeping or storing rice well.

Once you have opened a bag (or pack) of rice, you should store rice in a closed container.  That would ensure that rice would be kept clean. And also, that would help make rice free from dust and moisture. And that would even help avoid contamination.
If you are storing brown rice, you must take a different approach, however. Brown rice contains oil in its bran layer. That tends to shorten its shelf life. Brown rice would, therefore, be good to consume within six months.

You might want to place brown rice in a cold location (such as a refrigerator). Some would prefer to put brown rice in a freezer.

Do you have some cooked rice or leftover rice?

You can store cold (cooked) rice in a container.  Make sure it is tightly covered when you place it inside the refrigerator. 

​Did you know that you can keep (cooked) rice (in the fridge) for about three to five days?  You can also leave it in the freezer (for about half a year).

How to Reheat Rice

How to Reheat Rice
You can find numerous reasons for why you might need to use your leftover rice or why you might need to reheat rice. That could happen especially when (and if) you find yourself: pressed with time.
​
You could find yourself in a rush.  Or you could end up with not much time to spend (more cooking) in your kitchen. In such scenarios, you could reheat (cooked) rice that you have stored for some days in the fridge.
Here are ways on how you can reheat rice:
  • For every cup of (cooked) rice, you can add two tablespoons of water. 
  • Cover and place in the oven or stovetop (for about five minutes). 
  • You could also reheat one cup of rice in a microwave (for about a minute). Make sure rice is covered.
  • If you are reheating frozen rice, you can reheat (one cup of rice) for about two minutes. 
Conclusion

In essence, finding the time and learning about storing and reheating rice would enable you to experience some comfort and convenience.

​You would also be able to save time, money, and energy.

In the long run, you would thank yourself for taking the step to keeping rice (in your kitchen).
