Buying rice in the right harvest season
Every year, there are usually 2 new rice harvest seasons, the winter-spring crop and the summer-autumn crop. Therefore, we cannot always buy new rice.
Observe the shape of the rice grains
With new batches of rice, the rice grains look slender, still intact and white, with few broken grains and a natural fragrance. If you see rice grains that are unusually bright white, you should not buy them as they may have been bleached.
Smell the fragrance of the rice
Freshly harvested rice has a mild, natural fragrance, not too strong. If the rice has a strong smell, you should be cautious as it may have been treated with chemicals.
When you take a few grains and chew them in your mouth, the rice should taste sweet, without any strange taste.
In addition, you should not choose rice that is too white and heavily polished as it will remove many nutrients from the rice bran.
Choose rice according to your needs
Depending on the preference for sticky or fluffy rice and the price, you can choose the type of rice.
You can ask the seller for advice to choose the rice that suits your household’s needs.
Buy from reputable sources
To buy guaranteed fresh rice, you can ask relatives or people from the countryside to buy it for you.
If not, you should choose reputable sources to buy rice. In addition to domestically produced rice, there are also many imported rice varieties on the market from Thailand, Japan, etc.
