Suggestions for Best Results:
1. When washing rice, use warm water and wash lightly. Do not scrub with force.
Pour out the water quickly and repeat the process 2 to 3 times until the rice is clear.
2. After the rice is washed, it should be immersed in water for 30-60 minutes before cooking.
3. The amount of water needed will depend on the age and quality of the rice.
Generally, 1 cup of rice requires 1 cup of water.
4. For best results, do not warm rice for more than 8 hours.
