I usually wash rice, if I'm cooking it in our little Zojirushi gizmo.
Washed rice cooks up with a texture that I prefer. Unwashed, the grains
stick together more, and the gizmo overflows with a foamy mess.
Yeah, I know this washes away some vitamins. But I get enough of those
from other sources. Maybe, when the depression kicks in during the
second Bush term, and we are all subsisting on beans, rice, and toasted
cockroaches, I will go back to unwashed rice...
