3 Benefits of Cooking Rice with Filtered Water
-
Prevents chlorine odor from dulling the flavor
Depending on the chlorine concentration in tap water, a chlorine smell may be noticeable, and cooking rice with tap water can noticeably reduce its flavor. Filtered water has had residual chlorine removed by the filter media, so your rice tastes better.
-
Brings out the natural sweetness and umami of rice
Because the chlorine and impurities found in tap water have been removed from filtered water, using it for rinsing and cooking helps prevent off-flavors and odors, letting the rice’s own aroma and taste shine through.
-
Cooks up fluffy rice with a pleasant stickiness
Using filtered water makes it easier for rice to absorb water while minimizing the influence of substances contained in the water. As a result, you can expect rice with a fluffy texture.
How to Cook Rice Properly with Filtered Water
-
STEP1
Measure the rice accurately with the included measuring cup
Measure the rice accurately. The balance of rice and water greatly affects how your rice turns out.
Too much rice results in a hard texture with an uncooked core, so be sure to measure with a level scoop of the measuring cup. -
STEP2
Use filtered (soft) water from the first rinse
Dry rice quickly absorbs the first water used for rinsing, which greatly affects the flavor and finish of the cooked rice. To preserve the flavor, use filtered water from the very first rinse. Rinsing until the water runs clear also washes away the rice’s nutrients, so we recommend rinsing only 2 to 3 times.
-
STEP3
Measure the water accurately
After rinsing, measure the water for cooking accurately. Too much water makes the rice mushy, while too little leaves a hard core.
Follow the water level markings on the rice cooker’s inner pot to get just the right amount of water for the amount of rice. -
STEP4
Soak the rice thoroughly in filtered water
After rinsing, let the rice soak thoroughly in filtered water before cooking. When moisture reaches the core of each grain, the starch gelatinizes evenly during cooking, preventing uneven results and giving you fluffy rice with a pleasant stickiness.
-
STEP5
Fluff the rice as soon as it’s done
As soon as cooking is finished, open the lid and fluff the rice. Cutting through the rice with a rice paddle releases excess steam and prevents stickiness, so you can enjoy fluffy rice.
