Wow. I didn't realize that many people were worried about storing and
reheating cooked rice. It's true I'mm not a huge fan of rice but I do
cook it occasionally. I store cooked rice, covered, in the
refrigerator. I've never gotten sick from eating a reheated bowl of
cooked rice.

Me neither. I just pop it in the microwave, covered, with a smidge of water
to reheat.

Exactly! I always add some butter (and salt) because otherwise it's just
plain boring white rice. That's the way I learned how to cook it for
breakfast when we lived in Bangkok circa 1969. We had a Thai cook who
made rice with butter for her son.

Anyway, no problem with properly storing or reheating rice. Cooked rice
freezes well, too.

I make my REAL Brown Rice in large batches with butter and salt in it, then refrigerate in a large plastic container in the fridge, and have some with my breakfasts of chopped ham, beans and rice! YUM! I USED to eat Minute Rice because that's what my mommy always made, but real brown rice is much better!

i've only had some go bad on me once, and that was many
many years ago. it got shoved to the back of the fridge and
i forgot about it for a few months. no, i didn't even try
to eat it. opened up the container and there were the
obvious bits of grey fungi growing in there.

i don't eat much rice. i don't need more starch in my
diet. when i was eating more rice it was brown rice and
that was ok, but i also usually cooked it with lentils.

Never thought about it. I've reheated it in the past and I'm planning
on making risotto this week and some of it will be saved for later.

If it makes a difference, not plain rice but a pilaf style. Some veggies
mixed in, made with broth, not water.

I might add that I have often re-heated rice. It was only in the last 2
or 3 years that I learned - on food groups such as this - that it was
potentially iffy.

Yep, that's what I call a biology experiment and can go straight into the composting bin out back.

According to the experts i.e., Asians, you can leave rice out at room temperature for a day or so. My guess is that up North on the mainland, you can leave rice out for longer than here in the tropics.

OTOH, we used to rent a unit almost directly above our condo and the microorganisms totally wrecked the rice in a short period. Rice would start to liquefy after 8 hours or so. A lot depends on what bugs the are in your house air.

There was a big earthquake in the Kuril islands. It seems that we might have a big wave might be headed this way. We should know in around 5 hours. This could get interesting. OTOH, this might just solve all our problems. 😱

In the house, we both love rice. I make three cups at a time. We consume
about a cup's worth on the first meal. The following night another
portion goes into the frying pan with a bit of water and the steam
reconstitues it. The third and final portion usually goes into fried
rice. When it's especially dry it soaks up more oil making it yum.

We don't very often have leftover rice. We make just about enough for
a single meal and any dribs that are leftover get discarded.

Same here, we don't very often eat rice let alone have left overs.
Mostly rice here is flied lice from the take out and if any left overs
it feeds critters... wild birds like flied lice. The take out
includes plain rice with orders, that goes out for critters
immedietely. The only other use we have for rice is I will rarely
cook up some Spanish rice, we find it far superior to oriental type
rice dishes, however I prepare a small amount, about a cup of raw rice
simply because Spanish rice is only good when fresh made, deteriorates
rapidly in the fridge and reheated becomes clumpy, sticks together in
clumps. However rather than flied lice from the take outs I much
prefer Chinese noodle dishes because those are fresh cooked, take out
rice is always cooked hours and even days earlier and smells like it.
We much prefer rice dishes from lands of Spanish speaking people,
Orientals butcher rice dishes, they do much better with noodle dishes.
I think that's becaus the Orientals are so friggin' cheap they won't
throw old left overs in the trash, the Chinese will literally eat
dumpster salvage, they're almost as bad as Ukeleles.... just look at
the dreck our resident Ukelele prepares, SCARY!

It's an old family recipe and one that I'll never divulge!

I've never understood why someone will mention a secret
family recipe but not share it. Why mention it in the
first place if it's a secret unless they plan to market it?

Try this one. It's a competition winner often
and he DID share it.

If you want slighty burnt, just cook a bit longer on each side.
You could probably substitute water for the coconut milk
too if desired. It's the crispy part that wins.

It was a joke but if you feel the need for instructions, you get some rice, put it in a pan, and scorch it.

I had meatloaf last night. You just get some hamburger and mix it with other things. It's not particularly important what those things might be. I did put some cheese in it. The important part is to make sure you put some Sriracha on it.
