By the automatic and continuous boiling of rice using a method and plant according to the invention, where the soaking takes place in water from the boiling zone, where the boiling takes place in water from the cooling, and where the salting takes place by means of a salt solution in a closed circuit, the consumption of water can be considerably reduced in comparison with hitherto-known methods and plants. The plant comprises a soaker (4) in the form of a drum (5) from which the heated and soaked rice is led into a blancher (14) with boiling zones (17, 18), cooling zones (19, 20), salting zone (21) and dripping-off zone (22). By boiling slowly and allowing the rice to absorb as much water as possible as late as possible, the plant can be made compact and the boiling can be effected in a rational manner, and the subsequent freezing is effected without risk of the formation of clumps. <MATH> |
