Sāngǔ, Zhèngwèi, Wū zhàn → Fluff first, then steam for 20 minutes. ※ After cooking, remember not to let steam from the lid drip back into the pot. You can also try covering the pot with a cloth to absorb moisture. ※ Rice left on "keep warm" for too long tends to dehydrate and become dry and hard when cooled. If you plan to eat it later, pay attention to the warming environment. ※ After cooking, try the texture and adjust the water amount or soaking time next time to cook a pot of rice that's perfect for you. ※ When cooking with an electric cooker, place it on a steaming rack to prevent the inner pot from sticking due to uneven heating. ※ For cooking mixed grains, pre-soaking for 2 hours or more will result in a more distinct and delicious texture. **【Storage】** White rice and brown rice degrade due to lack of protection. ※ Chemical changes: Protein, lipids, carbohydrates, enzymes. ※ Physical changes: Moisture loss, yellowing, water absorption, volatile sulfides. ※ Nutritional loss: Protein loss. Proliferation of microorganisms, mold, aflatoxins, anaerobic bacteria. Rice is not a dried good. The shelf life is for reference only. Eating it quickly is best for you. Refrigeration is the only other option. https://c1.staticflickr.com/3/2880/33469063083_ba88ae9b4a_b.jpg **【Our Commitment】** || Origin visits and tastings.
