You may be correct about the starch being a component of the dirty look of the water. But I still think it is important to clean the rice very carefully because the process of delivering the rice from field to warehouse to truck or train to stockroom to bulk display to home, is a long and dirty journey. Sue learned in the many macrobiotic cooking classes she took through Casa de Luz that soaking helps release the nutritional goodness in the rice and makes it much softer and more digestible as well as tasting great. There is a more technical explanation for the reason to soak the rice in the short article found in this link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brown_rice. I have become a real rice snob after getting used to the pressure cooked brown rice. Hi Mellisa.

I admire your dedication. Are you sure that all the mucky water is dirt? I'm thinking that it might be rice starch. I always rinse my rice too but I thought it was mostly rice starch, not dirt. Also, I'm wondering what you think about not soaking the rice? I never remember to soak my rice prior. Do you think some of the health benefits are lost if you don't soak it? BrownRiceLife RULES.
