Question: what is the difference between parboiled rice and instant rice?
Answer: What is minute rice? "Rice can be hulled and then milled or processed or the rice can be processed with the hull on before milling; referred to as raw or parboiled, respectively," says Passerrello. "Either raw or parboiled rice can then be blanched, steamed, rinsed and dehydrated to become 'instant' rice."
