You're Eating Arsenic Laced Rice...Here's How To Avoid It!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 вер 2024
- Depending on where your rice is from, what type it is, or how you cook it, it may have elevated levels of the heavy metal arsenic. Arsenic and heavy metals can be found naturally in the ground, but certain areas are more affected by pollution and modern farming. I would highly recommend only eating rice from low arsenic areas like California, and make sure to wash and rinse it well. Better yet, just opt for nutrient dense wild rice, which is vastly superior when it comes to macros and has zero heavy metals.

I LOVE that you mentioned Lundberg Farms! I have done work for them in the past and they are such a great family owned CA business who really cares about what they do! I’m sure they’ll appreciate the shout out! 🧡
It really is the best! I've only been eating the Wild Rice Blend for several yrs. Can't complain about the price when it's quality.
I started researching this because my mother's crazed hubby (older than dirt) will only eat/cook white rice.
Their rice is my absolute favorite. Esp short grain brown!
I wasn't taught to rinse or soak rice growing up, so I really appreciate receiving this information now.
When a guy with a mask talks....I stop listening.
Rinse rice until it’s clear then let the rice soak in water for 25-30 minutes. Max 2hrs to let all the starch out. Soak it in cold water. Then rinse and cook it starting with cool water so the rice can cook evenly. 🙂
We, in our village, don't just stir OR JUST SWIRL the rice to wash it. We REALLY do wash the rice thoroughly
@@sunitapatel4750 I think that's too much time for me. Rinsing until the water comes clear is about the most I would really want to do.
You never learned the 1 finger rule to cooking the perfect rice. Lol
Jesus continue to protect me and my family EVERYTHING we eat or have eaten is poisonous 🙏
😂😂😂😂
in my native country of el Salvador we always rinse the rice
That’s why we should pray for and in everything we do
@@madebyliann I'm PR and I was taught to wash my rice. Plse don't stereotype.
There you go sanctified by prayer! That’s why we obey and pray for thanksgiving to the Lord for His protection.
My mom ate as healthy as Bobby for most of her life, if not better. She got on a brown rice kick and ate it everyday for about 2-3 years before she found out about the arsenic then stopped eating it immediately. Her hereditary cancerous tumor showed up not too long after. She is now deceased about 7 years later, no radiation or chemo. Bless her soul. I love you momma. 😘
I’m sorry about the loss of your mother. I learned about arsenic in rice about 7 years ago and shared with my mother who, like yours, was always all about healthy eating. She became very vigilant about eating only California rice and then she disappeared in plain sight with Alzheimer’s.
You will meet again🙏🏼
So did her hereditary tumor appear because she stopped eating arsenic laced brown rice?
@@Lucinda_Jackson can you help me understand? Are you suggesting that she got Ahlzheimers as a result of eating rice or as a result of stopping the consumption of the rice. Read your post again please.
@@modernvintagelifestyles
You’re unbelievable
In Persian cooking, white rice is used , we wash 3 times and then soak with very salty water for a min one hour before boiling it (rice silos often attract rats and they leave their faeces behind). Once I became aware of recent studies and how to effectively remove the Arsenic, I first wash 3 times, then soak 3 times, each min 30 minutes then pour off the water and then finally soak with salt for one to two hours, then pour off the water and boil it. Baes on this study I found, this way, you remove up to 95% of the Arsenic. Given, you will not reach 100% Arsenic free rice, sticking to moderation in consuming rice and any other food items makes a lot of sense.
I think I will try this. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing🤗🙌🏾🙏🏾
Sounds like a FULL-TIME job, just to eat some damn rice..lol
Just eat something else.. I'm sure there are foods clean enough you don't need to wash and soak them for 9 hours. Isn't that a red flag of some kind.
@@MISTYEYED. lol yeah I just buy wild rice or cook some good quality pasta.
:/ I literally gave myself arsonic poisoning from eating rice over the span of 2-3months. Just got on a wild homemade sushi and fried rice kick eating at least 3-4 dried cup measurements of rice every day atleast 6 days a week (some days I ate 5-7 dried cups),. All thse cups rinsed and cooked in a normal rice cooker. Ate alot of seaweed to which didn't help the arsonic.
Welp 1 month in I was fine, 2nd month I was feeling oddly sickly not to sure why. Also got this new very odd aftertaste after coughing like a metalic/eggy/throwup taste. Getting into that 3rd month I kenw something was up. Was getting a stinging in my nervs in the joints of my fingers like my nervs were being pinched. I started to get warts on my face and on my hair line especially right at my neckhair line. Lots of bumpy lesions. One on my cheek was a straight up black wart as well as another one near my front hair line. Was feeling awful. Mind you I'm not just eating rice, I"m eating lots of veggies and fruits to as normal.
Welp after realzing this thing on my face isn't just a zit gone bad, it struck me that oh snap wait this is a wart. Instantly remembered a video back to a nutritionfacts video about rice/arsonic/warts relations. Went to the doc and had them test me and yep I straight gave myself arsenic poising and pretty sever to having gone at it constantly 3months.
After the diagnosis I just cut off rice cold turkey. By now I was litterly bed ridden constantly coughing with the worst breath known to man from the arsenic effecting my gut. Called a week off work to recover. Within that week everything momentarily finally went away. Depending on what I eat like junkfood the symptoms would come back particularly the taste. Just takes alot of time to pretty much pee out all the arsonic in me.
Fast forward 2 months and I'm pretty good now. All the warts are gone but the one on my cheek that slowly is widdling itself away. All the other warts went away pretty easily like the ones on my neck hair line and the one near my front hair line. Everyday they'd scale over and I'd peel them little by little every day till they're completely gone. The one on my cheek being the exception as it grows as I eat bad and goes away as I stick to eating healthy, but overall as my arsonic goes down it gets noticeably easier to widdle at.
Arsnoic is no joke. Im asian I ate rice all the time growing up, but recently I went way to ham on the stuff lol. Rice was the main dish for breakfast lunch and dinner. Not just a bowl here and there, I was eating literal rice cookers worth every day sometimes 2 rice cookers worth. I'm a fit guy to not fat not even average by american standards. I guess that also adds to my susceptibility to arsenic being smaller. But yea, arsenic in rice is no joke if if you really push it.
For reference I was mainly eating sushi rice in those 20lb totes, and jasmine rice here and there. Also washed the rice multiple times before coolking every time. Washing ain't going to do enough to stop the arsenic.
We were taught to add baking soda(sodium bicarbonate) to water while washing any food, especially for greens. I might use when washing rice too
I'm Chinese, so rinsing rice is a must. We always washed it 3 times or until the water is clear.
Thanks so much my husband is Cuban and they wash the rice 🍚 also and I never knew why I started doing it but now I know to wash it more than one time
Thank you , I had high arsenic , I ate thai food alot .
I don't go to Asia restaurant anymore .
I hardly eat out now .
I'll wash the rice now .
My mother always washed the rice... so I grew up doing the same. It was a shocker to me when I found out as an adult that some people didn't wash their rice. Wash or not it seems like we all have to cut back on rice until rice manufactures can find a way to remove the arsenic or the government force them to do it which is the more likely scenario.
I am happy that I came across this video. I heard about arsenic in rice and I was wondering what I should do with my big bag of organic brown rice from California. Now I feel better about eating it. Thanks for the washing tip.
The operative word in the Lumberg product is 'blend' which includes regular, arsenic-laden black, brown, and red rice. It's on the back of the packaging.
Thank you for taking the time to educate us. Amazing what we don't know.
Plot twist: every naturally grown food contains arsenic, cadmium, chromium, zinc and other heavy metals.

Nice can you test the fake meats for estrogen im told they are saturated.
@@steventripp4530 I don't do meat products. I actually test a lot of nutraceuticals and dietary supplements which include plant based items and extracts from plants, think ashwagandha, cinnamon, grape seed extract. The FDA actually has allowances for heavy metals because it's impossible to not have them in plants and anything extracted from plants.
However, i've read they can be removed from our body through chelation.
Our groundwater has consentrated heavy metals so we must be careful. Cool job
@@tarokeefe7722 yes so called soft metals being sprayed on everyone worldwide its to make people loose their minds. Look at the elderly and wonder who is going loose it next . Their are documents of this plan the rulers of this planet are at antarctic. Certain politicians and wealthy individuals go their and are told what to do with the rest of the slaves.

Please, can you do an episode on how to cook wild rice?
please
Thank u i am a daily eater of rice. I had no idea again. Why is there no info when shopping. Wild rice im in thank u again. Excellent. Keep on keeping on
Even though I had already heard of this, your video was not only easy to follow but highly informative!
I watched a news segment interviewing scientists that said the heavy metals are inside the rice and can't be washed away.
At the end of the video you were standing in front of Minute Rice. What are your views on that type of rice? Thank you for sharing your knowledge on these topics.b🤔😍
Thank you Bobby for enlightening us! Now I know what not to feed my grandkids because of you much 💗 love
Could you do an episode on the vitamins and supplements to be taking during the spring and summer. Given these COVID times I would to know what supplements are best for these times.
I eat long grain brown organic rice.
Always wash thoroughly before placing in the rice cooker.
Arsenic is the least of your problems.
In Indonesia the outhouses for the workers are fertilizing the rice fields
For those of you concerned, it’s okay to eat rice.
However, knowing soil content is a good way to learn agriculture and especially if you’re gardening your own food.
Now aside from arsenic absorption, there are brands of “fake rice” that are just “plastic rice” filled with food color and vitamins. I learned this when we “melted” dry rice on a pan and they literally dissolved. Also, microwaving it would burn it. That’s bad.
That makes absolutely no sense the whole process that you mentioned would cost more than just normal rice.
I saw that. That was upsetting. I guess you need to be so careful which what brand you buy
Very good rice from Ca. No tummy issues.👍 I eat Wild rice , Black ,Red . Jasmin. But that upsets the tummy
Oh wow. I was a fan of brown rice. I will make sure it is made in California and I will rinse and drain the boiled rice water. Love this stuff.
Rice grown in an organic farm doesn't necessarily mean it's arsenic-free. Even if the farm doesn't use pesticides containing arsenic - most of which are banned in the United States - arsenic can be in the soil from pesticides applied in the past.
Non cultivated wild rice is like $20/lb. Unfortunately there’s not a chance I’ll be partaking in that. Nice thought though.
I would love to see a review on vinegars.
Decaying chemistry. The body wants fresh. More alklaine as well. Eat raw as much as possible.
Rice is always rinsed well before cooking - preferred method is Steaming . Never anything other than Basmati - brown .
Sushi I like , but despite trusting the sellers , I don't often buy it .
Hi Bobby. Thank you so much for your educative videos. Could you please make a video about hair multivitamins such as biotin, B12 and etc. ? Thank you so much
The US government sprayed agent orange which was a chemical made by Dow Chemical to deforestation in South East Asia during Vietnam war. Not sure if those chemicals ever been cleaned up but it did caused a lot of birth defects. 😢💔

I get my arsenic straight out of the bottle so as to avoid those dangerous carbs.
Grains (including rice) are of the grass family.
Thank you for excellant heads up on rice. Ill try the cal rice when im up to it but on titght budget so try to go with the cheap stuff. Maybe you could do an actual litmus test for arsenic on various cheap rice bags and determine actual arsenic levels. Untill then i just throw it in iron skillet add 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon white vinegar. Then i toss in italian seasonong and im off and running! Comes up fast within 45 minutes ive got soft fluffy rice! 😅
Bobby, could you tell us about the best food for dogs?
And cats please!
Dog and cat food is made out of roadkill.
Make rice and veg for your pet with chicken or beef stock. No corn ! Its bad for them
I use chicken parts clippings (parts we wont eat cause we are picky eaters).. in a bit of true butter and I use green beans and berrys..all of these are very cheep..at stores like groceries outlets and Walmarts...I have a very healthy and fit doggie..I also give him good bones...o and every morning he gets eggs sunnyside up...if I take time for my health why not do it for your fur babys..
O and there are only a few dog food making companys..they sale to name brand companys that add more garbage to them and waalaa..you have a variety of same garbage
I eat rice every day. You have to wash the rice about five times before you cook it. This will help get some of the chemicals out.

I knew about this years back. I soak rice for 4/5 hrs rinse it again before i even think about cooking it.
Thank you Bobby your one of the fortunate ones
We do not eat rice anymore when we found out about arsenic in rice. Does not matter. There are many better grains to eat. Eva
actually California and US rice is full of arsenic and heavy metals and pollution. The best rice are indian basmati rice from the Himalaya foot hills that are grown in in the Himalaya glacier run-off waters organically. Also with any rice you should wash the rice well several times and boil it in water and drain it. Look at how the persians cook rice. Basmati rice types also have the lowest GI index of any rice both brown and white type.
We Indians, our staple diet is rice and roti, we eat brown rice that is good for you, but you have to wash the rice at least 3 to 4 times once the water is clean you are good to go, you can start to cook your rice enjoy with some yummy Indian Curry 👌
One of the minor minerals your body needs is arsenic, but do NOT eat a lot of it.
Let's be honest. I just need to know where chipotle gets their rice from... Lol but seriously
I sent them an email once to ask them where there food comes from?All they said was it comes in big containers from somewhere..they avoided the question sort of......
Let’s be honest - rice is likely where they would tend to go for a less expensive option to cut expenses so they can stay higher quality in their other ingredients. That likely means it’s not California rice.
Maybe try their new cauliflower rice...
Wash your rice in warm water a few times and soak it hot water and vinegar for 30 to 45 minutes. Wash it again and then cook it!
Funny this guy preaches to eat rice from US and not from the countries which have been growing and living on rice without problems from hundreds of years 😂 Americans I tell ya
In very small doses organic arsenic is harmless and potentially even beneficial: "arsenic has a role in the metabolism of the amino acid methionine and in gene silencing (Uthus, 2003). Other work suggests that it has a positive interaction with the more important micronutrient selenium (Zeng et al, 2005)." That is from the NIH. Stop worrying about a grain of rice and start worrying about bigger things you can do something about!
Wow you gotta love this guy
i hear jasmine rice has minimal amounts if any due to the time of season its grown, or something else i dont remember but it isnt exposed to much
Thank you for sharing your knowledge 🙏🏻
My rice contains heavy metal rock and roll and i love it.
dude: keep your circumspection awareness on high alert.
you just made oligarchy type enemies lol
Thanks for your insight ❤
It's funny when people say some rice that is source from Asia is bad, but Asians eat rice every day a lot of the times it's sourced local but people who are Asian descent still has a longer lifespan compared to other race. Also, wash your rice!
Still don't understand why brown rice in particular sucks up so much arsenic, reputedly and comparatively.
Ex Colorado senator Hart said " RICE is Good " ,Wonder there ain' t any Home test kit for Arsenic
No wonder there are so many cancer etc. we don’t know what to eat and who to trust anymore 🥴
Believe it or not...cancer is man made
One thing a person can do to lower their risk for cancer is to stop eating processed foods & processed sugar. If a person can't stop at least cut back. The rise in cancer is commensurate with the rise in processed foods & availability of processed sugar. Even more? People who give their sugar laden "food" plus processed "food" to their pets are increasing their pets risk for cancer & dental problems that make the pet very grouchy because they are in extreme dental pain.
@@FreeSpirit47 cheap pet foods also cause cancer. I’ve asked many people I’ve associated with who have dogs with tumors, “what kind of food do you use”?. It’s almost always a cheap dog food.
@Grace Bressi Most people are too lazy and want a quick fix. I think it's part of this instant gratification culture we've created. The daily long lines at these fast food restaurants just blows my mind! People like to argue about the expense of organic foods but, you see them blowing money on excess garbage they dont need. If you don't have your health you have nothing.
EXACTLY!!!
We’re Asian and we eat rice with almost everything. Yes of course you must rinse your rice very well. My grandparents ate rice every single day, sometimes 2 or 3 times a day and lived until their 90s. But of course, they never ate processed foods. My grandmother went to the open market every Wednesday, and bought only meats, fish and fresh vegetables and fruits. That’s it. What’s funny, is that my grandpa smoked a pipe and my grandma smoked cigarettes ( with the butt inside her mouth) common in their province. But I believe because they never stressed about life and were always calm and joyful, they lived long lives. Could be too of genetics! Who knows, but God bless them … I loved living with them for three years and seeing a different approach to food and life!
What god are you wanting them to be blessed by,the god(s) of Asians as I know they believe Buddha is god or a god,or how about the god(s) of Egypt,Rome,Greece,Islam,e.t.c I exclude the God of Abraham Isaac and Yacob because he has proven himself the true creator who answered when the pagan gods did not. 💁🤔 if it's not Yahuah (YAH)then your plea falls on deaf ears for pagan gods have no power to grant anything. Not even those HUMAN religious men who fed on the idolatry of their own ethnic group. they are not even aware that people call on them for death has stolen that awareness away just as it has done to everyone who has died but has not resurrected themselves. YAH said he will not share honor and worship with other gods whom the people love.
Agreed. These are fear channels with social media influencers

I grew up in a farm in Kerala, India. We had rice paddy fields. I can eat rice for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snack, midnight, etc. We eat Kerala Kuthari rice (red/brown type of rice).

Gets the starch out, dirt out and whatever chemicals like Arsenic out.

Just a general recommendation! Wash and soak your rice. Make sure after washing your rice several times, you soak the rice in lots of water, about more than 5 times its volume, for over 2 hours. Drain the water before cooking.
We love our rice I'm from a place called RICEBORO.
I am just so floored by this... Never even knew nothing about Arsenic Laced Rice.....😳

I'm from Panama and we always washed our rice until the water came clear and i never questioned it, just thought it is what you do with rice. Some things you just do as part of culture or upbringing and never ask why, but now I know and recognize the wisdom of our elders. ❤️
Same.... from Panama and have always rinsed rice until the water is clear.
I would have thought rinsing the rice until clear was a no brainer?!
Anyway, at this point if we are gonna worry about every little thing that goes into our mouths, we are gonna starve! It doesn’t matter what it is, even if it is vegetables and salads those are bound to be bad for you too! What guarantee do I have that is really organic? Because is labeled as such?
That’s very easy to do..
There is people that drink protein smoothies and powder proteins and lots of man made crap!
Use your common sense, eat a balanced meal, avoid fast food, sugary drinks and packaged food. Avoid candy, exercise or at least go to the park to walk 3times a week, drink water when you are thirsty and keep yourself busy!
EAT TO LIVE AND DON’T LIVE TO EAT!

While you are right with your content. I think it is important to give ALL information and not just say US rice is best. To be clear rice from different regions will contain different levels of arsenic. Study shows that white basmati rice from California, Pakistan and India are lower arsenic region's for rice. Also ppl can pick quinoa, buckwheat, and millet is also know to be on the lower arsenic level. It's true Texas is the worst place to get rice from due to they have highest-rated arsenic levels. Most importantly due your OWN research as it is always easier to listen to someone given you the information it always better to follow up for your own knowledge.🙂
From your comment I can readily observe that you do not appreciate anything anyone does. You Pat them on the back with one hand and stab them with the other
He's focusing on rice in this video though.
@@streetjustice6256 its human nature to wine, bitch, and complain.
HE DID SAY THAT! He specifically talked about Californua rice. Were you effing asleep?? Some people just like to hear themselves talk.
Please forgive the people coming in before me they're all too stupid to read what you said. Thank you for your comment I agree with researching for myself. But I think he's saying to get it local because it's something you can be sure that if it says California it's from California. Like the olive oil issue sometimes the rice candy from Asia but not tell you exactly where in Asia so you're not sure. Just a thought as to why he said California was the best choice.
The rice in the southern US is grown in fields that use to be cotton fields. They used arsenic to kill the boll weevil bugs. Even though the field has been changed from cotton to rice, they are still contaminated. It is estimated that arsenic can have a residence time life of 9000 years in the soil. I have been buying my rice from California growers for years.
Can you provide a link to purchase? Thank you!
Lundberg organic brown rice is the best tasting and highest quality I know. Everything is contaminated even Lundberg.
Yeah and who used to slave away in the cotton fields ? And what else did cotton used to be in ....Money (paper notes). The evil of Esau 🤯
Thank you
Yes but rice is also grown on land in the south that used to be tobacco fields that were heavily sprayed for years with pesticides. So yes always buy rice grown in CA.
Glad grandma washes her rice, she from the Carribbean so they wash everything lol, which is good

No you don't rinse rice until it gets clear, that will wash away all the vitamins/nutrients in it, you only need to rinse it 2 to 3 times at most.
@@palefeathervaldez3563 No.... First, white rice has almost nutrients in it in the first place, so you're only washing away starch which makes for fluffier rice. If you're eating brown rice or wild rice, you're still not washing away nutrients...where exactly do you think the nutrients are? On the dust on the outside?
For other people who would like to know, rice with the least arsenic is Basmati rice from the foothills of the Himalayan Mountains, and Jasmine rice from Thailand.
How to Prepare & Cook Rice to Remove Most Arsenic
*Rinse/wash rice repeatedly until the water is as clear as you can get it
*Soak your rice overnight - this opens up the grain and allows the arsenic to escape
*Drain the rice and rinse thoroughly with fresh water
*For every part rice add five parts water and cook until the rice is tender - do not allow it to boil dry.
*Drain the rice and rinse again with hot water to get rid of the last of the cooking water.
Share a video about this please.
Do you do all this for white rice, or just brown rice? Brown rice does need soaking for digestibility reasons.
@@aquamarine99911 both ..
yes, but the dude in the video says basmati from cali is the best when there is not even basmati grown in the states

Basmati doesnt grow in the US. US tried to patent the word though. And arsenic levels can differ based on how many times a rice product is washed by the machines.

I’m on a gluten free intermittent detox, so I consume rice on daily basis. For someone like me, with heavy metal toxicity, this is what my holistic doctor told me to do. Any rice needs to be washed with bicarbonate till water is clear, parboil for 10 minutes max, drain the dirty water and replace with fresh new water. Wipe down the sides of the pot, you’ll notice a lot of the dirt tends to bind there.
Also I’d like to add that arsenics are sprayed on fruits and veggies, so soak in sodium bicarbonate for 10+ minutes. The bicarbonate molecules bind to metals.
I can not find any studies verifying out even suggesting this is true.
@@ShaggyRodgers420 well they are talking about doing " detox" so you can be assured most of what they are spewing is BS
Organic is when you travel to the Caribbean
You lying
Do ever see where the rice grows so stop it...
Let me know where you come from before you talk about organic
@@mireillesamedi3473 - Who is lying? I don't see anyone talking about organic.
I'm from Louisiana and my mother and grandmother always washed their rice. I wash my rice, until the water is clear. It's just the way we prepare it for cooking.
Same here from Louisiana also
Same here wash your rice real nice and clean before cooking it…
Yeah like I don’t know anyone who doesn’t.
Yes, that’s what I was taught by my mom as well, but the rice she used to cook appeared to be very dirty and needed to be washed first. I got away from that practice when I switched to parboiled rice because it looks cleaner. Now I don’t really a lot of rice today, I normally eat organic quinoa which I do wash before cooking.
@@roshandachark7820 I only eat rice with gumbo, but my husband eats it everyday. Even when I buy parboiled, I still wash it. The rice is dirty.
Quinoa is a great choice and so versatile. 👌 I'd eat it often too but hubby doesn't like it so I don't buy it. I eat it when I visit my mother.
Depending on the rice, rinsing repeatedly parboiling can help reduce the amount of arsenic you're consuming immensely. #growingupnigerian 😊
Boiling doesn’t eliminate everything
@@agag4866 nope but it "can help reduce the amount of arsenic" as stated
My preferred brand of rice is jasmine rice. Washing my rice before cooking has been my practice for years. In addition to washing, I also add about a tablespoon and a half of apple cider vinegar to the water prior to cooking, per 4 to 5 cups of rice. The vinegar preserves the rice from spoiling, reduces arsenic levels, and promotes digestive and gut health. Thanks for your video advice.
Do you cook your rice adding vinegar? Or just rinsing rice in vinegar?
@@Poreckylife the comment says after rinsing rice add the vinegar to the water prior to cooking
@@gemspiritmessages2754 so cook with vinegar?
@@Poreckylife vinegar is added during cooking.
@@vincemalone1895 Thank you
The traditional Indian way of cooking rice is to wash it well a few times and add it to water in the pan after the water comes to a boil. For one measure of rice boil 5-6 measures of water. And enough water as required to maintain that ratio as the rice gets cooked. When the rice has been cooked to your desired softness, turn off the stove and empty the contents into a big enough colander until the starchy water is fully drained. The transfer the rice back to the container.
This method not only removes arsenic and other contaminants to a high degree, but also removes the excess starch, making it ideal for diabetics, calorie watchers, those on a diet, etc.
Yes this is how I learned the best way to make rice healthy. I quit eating rice 30yrs ago reading how bad it was in starch and arsenic. Now I can eat it again.
I think rice taste best when you measure 1cup of rice to 2 cups water .bring to boil and put lid on.then have another burner ready to steam rice for about 20 minutes.
My mother in law taught me years ago.
Turns out good eveytime.
I of course rinse the rice using my hands a number of times before i cook. No getting rid of starch.
However much rice you use just add double the water. 2 to 1 ratio.
And put lid on quick after comes to boil. Then steam on low to med.
I would recommend using non-powdery gloves when rinsing your rice, so your body does not absorb the chemicals released off of the rice into the water.
I always rinse all grain very well , I can’t imagine how many animal , dirty dust , bad storage etc etc this grains have before I opened a bag .
Clean every thing !!!!
Has Lundberg and other California rices really solved their arsenic high content? About 10yrs ago Consumers Digest did a report on arsenic in rice and these were some of the very highest. They recommended Jasmine rice from a couple of Southeast Asian countries. Lower use of chemicals used in agriculture and indust rial contaminates exposure.
10 years ago? Seems out of date
Can you do another video on the best brands for different types of rice? For example jasmine rice, Basmati rice, short grain sticky rice, wild rice etc. and where to find these brands.
I just spotted some at my Vons Pavilion. But now I see Wild Blend, Jasmine, and the Basmati, so great idea if he explained the difference.
Basmathi and Jasmine from Malaysia. Did not hear abt arsenic associated with the two brands.
Hey I just wanted to say that I'm so impressed with your abundance of knowledge when it comes to healthy eating that when I teach my nutrition class at the modeling school I work at in Rocky Hill,CT,I tell my students to subscribe to your channel while in teaching basic nutrition.I teach a new batch of kids(men or women once a week on average wt 12 to 15 students on average.just keep giving me good content like you have been doing and I'll keep doing my part to promote your channel 👍🤗
OMG! this is the reason why me and my kids get sick when we eat rice. Didn’t know why. I had to change my rice from regular rice to jasmine or Basmati rice. Thank you so much for education us on all these things. God bless you!🙏🙏🙏
I am doing keto for over 6months. Educated myself to eat better. Lost 22 pounds so far since July. Feel great. Less inflammation and more gym activities. You are what you eat. Be careful grocery shopping these days. Great channel. Thank you for your tips.
@MC You pretty much can't eat rice on keto, or if you really want to, it should be in an extremely small serving, which is your cheat day
There's no rice on Keto
I would love to start eating keto? I will start my research
Keto is really bad for you, I’m sure your doctor told you that tho
Congratulations 👏
That's awesome
I am from India & we use a rice variety called Matta Rice (red rice from Kerala) and everyone in our state washes the rice up to 5 times the way Bobby did before cooking it in a pressure cooker.
My family half boils rice then strain off the water. They also add some water before straining. That's how every Indian I knew growing up, did it.
@thulomanchay Greetings
I like my rice grains separate also
How would zi cook it?
I thought it clumped up if you wash before cooking or if you didn't put the exact amount of water.
Thanks. Good day
I’m learning about all this can you tell me how to cook rice properly then? Do you just boil it like you would boil pasta? drain the rice once it comes to a boil I’m kind of confused... Thank you
@@rminfinityyoung2553 Yes, I remember a video somewhere, an Indian person said they didn't cook their rice until all water was absorbed. The drained the excess water off like you do when cooking pasta.
Now I know why my Asian wife use to rinsed the rice to clear water. My mother who is part American Indian fed us wild rice which I prefer today and my wife does as well. It's the only rice we eat. Now I know, you know.
Wild rice is not a rice but a grass, my favorite is from Minnesota.
@@joexg50 I heard it as well as you did..It's just labeled that
I find it funny Westerners never realize it. But then again, nixtamalization is not done in modern processing of corn. Anything to skip a step to save time or money.
@@TehKaiser One of the reasons is more choices for starch, potatoes is another so rice & corn is just another choice. As far as skipping steps is concerned with the big Ag corps lobbying the govt to remove restrictions on quality the food isn't getting any safer either.
Please give me the name to your air purifier machine 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 the one that removes odors-Thank you🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Just Google

It was just a few years ago I learned that rice should be rinsed to remove the Arsenic. I was reading a Japanese recipe and rinsing the rice was mentioned.. I was shocked, to say the least, to learn about Arsenic!
I can't stop thinking about the people using rice water to grow their hair 😩
I hear a lot of that too. Finally found a use for that good ole arsenic... 🤷🏾♂️

Who else was waiting for FLAVCITY for this EDUCATIVE Rice Review ?
This may sound funny but going to sleep early 8-10pm is crucial because this is when your body detoxes and we can see how important that is nowadays! You never know what you may be eating. This is also why detoxes for everyone are super useful. Quarterly cleanses are a fantastic way to keep the body clear of stuff like this 🙂
Can you elaborate on the cleanses?
My health has gone downhill working nights. It's very hard to keep up with when you can't get enough sleep and it's not night time hours. 😢
