In a process to treat polished rice, the polished rice is moistened and subsequently dried at least twice. The relative humidity is raised slightly in each subsequent stage. The moistening rate is at least 0.5% per hour. The drying operations are in equal stages. In the process, the rice is initially wetted prior to exposure to super-heated or saturated steam for up to 30 minutes, followed by washing and two-stage drying. After washing the grain moisture is up to 30%. |
