I've found that the amount of times you wash rice depends on if you like your rice stickier or not. For example, I don't like my rice very sticky so I wash my rice 3-5 times. But some may like it more sticky in which case you wash it fewer times. All in all, starch in the rice makes the rice more sticky when cooked so however many times you wash it is up to preference

Coming from the West Indies we are taught to wash only twice as well. We're on your side, its the proper way. 🥰

So, just from my observation, it depends on how "sticky" you want your rice. I've been taught the traditional way is to wash as much of the rice starch off of the short grain rice as to taste (2-3 times, depending on the brand and recipe). My husband, who is Indian, likes his rice to be long-grain basmati and not sticky at all, so I wash it 4-5 times, straining thoroughly between each rinse. Again, I cook a LOT, and this is just based on what I've observed.

Yeah that's the gist of how starch works on rice. Also some countries wash it not to remove starch but to remove dirt and impurities (Other countries already have clean rice supplies). Anyways, if you're making something like risotto, it's best to buy clean rice grains and not to wash it at all.

@tedjoslavianus1817

Correct, if anyone wants their rice on sticky side and fluff more then 2-3 times is enough for me I prefer on the grainy side so I washed it until it's clear. What you can do in more traditional way to make it really perfect is by streaming the rice for 10 minutes after its done cooking then break it up and move it to rice cooker for continuous warming/heating

As long as there’s no dirt and husk floating in the water it’s good. As I get older I wash it 3 times, since I buy rice which has higher quality but has more starch.

I trust science over tradition personally, but I do also wash my rice (it helps negate the fact I bought sushi rice for normal food...) Many dishes in southern Europe actually require the rice to be unwashed as well to maintain that extra starch. The idea rice is "dirty" or "covered in chemicals" is from a time before modern standards. Edit: It's called "Rice Fortification" and is done by countries around the world. Places with a culture that washes rice (or does not have as high of safety standards for food production) will use fake rice pieces in the rice so it doesn't get washed away. In places that do not wash rice, they generally use a powder.

First of all , our rice are not round or ovalish , rather they are more longer , we also first put or rice in a bowl of water for about 15 mins for it to get softer and thicker , then we rinse the rice 2-3 times. We also , if making just plain white rice , add salt and oil to it and add it to water in the pot. Then we cook it on low heat with a cover on it. The result is quite different from ur type of rice , our rice don't clump at all , not even a little , rather they stay as separate cooked rice grains . Needless to say , it depends on the area and region

The both of you are doing it right. At least you both are washing and rinsing out the water.🍚👍

I was taught to wash 3 times moving it around like Doug, some times I’ll do it more then 3 times

Put the rice into a fine colander, run it under the tap while shaking the colander, it makes the water run clear so much quicker.

It depends on what result you want. If you want very separated, fluffy rice wash it very well until water is clear. If you want a more sticky, clumpy rice wash it twice. Don't worry about washing away nutrients. It's only a tiny amount of nutrients. You should be eating a balanced diet anyways.

As long as the rice gets cooked and goes to my plate, im fine with both

I usually wash until it runs clear, and why is it that in every rice washing videos, no one talks about repurposing the rice water 😭 I use it to water the plants!

Different people and cultures all have different customs. Rice is pretty unique in that pretty much every culture you can think of had rice in it's history. Some places rice was barely washed and just cleaned for bugs and stuff. In some places they washed it fully to get rid of the free starch on the exterior which makes rice stick together. So generally, more washing = more fluffy and less washing = more sticky

Sometimes I’d you over wash the rice it breaks down a protective coating on the grain and will become gluggy. Worse than not washing the rice at all.

It's actually important to wash rice not only to rinse out the starch and dirt. Because of the way rice is cultivated it is prone to accumulate arsenic in its structures. By washing the rice thoroughly you can remove a lot of the arsenic.

Here in my country, we wash the rice 'till it's clear because the food process before it sell to the market is kinda dirty. They need to dry the rice under the sunny days (3-5days) and spread it in the roads. Which has a direct contact to the dirts and everything.
