What should I do if the rice smells burnt?

We have to eat rice every day, but sometimes because we don't pay attention to the heat, the rice is burnt and cannot be eaten. This brings great trouble to housewives. It feels a pity to throw away the burnt rice, but it tastes disgusting when eaten, and we are afraid of harming the body. When the rice is burnt, what should we do? Can we still eat burnt rice? Next, let's take a look together.

(1) If the rice is accidentally burnt, do not stir it. Place the rice cooker in a humid place for ten minutes and the smoky smell will disappear.

(2) Take the rice pot off the stove, open the lid, place three or five scallions on top of the rice, and then close the lid again. After a few minutes, take out the scallions and the burnt smell of the rice will be gone.

(3) You can also use a piece of red-hot charcoal, put it in a bowl, put it into the pot, cover it, and the burnt smell will disappear after ten minutes.

(4) If the rice is burnt, turn off the heat immediately, place a piece of bread crust on the rice, cover the pot, and let the bread crust absorb the burnt smell after 5 minutes.

(5) Fill a bowl with cold water and place it in the middle of the rice pot. Press the water into the rice so that the edge of the bowl is level with the rice. Then cover the pot with a lid, turn down the heat, and simmer for one or two minutes before uncovering the pot. This will eliminate the burnt smell.

(6) If you smell the rice is burnt, place the rice cooker in 3 to 6 cm deep cold water, or place it on the ground splashed with cold water. The burnt smell will disappear after about 3 minutes.

(7) Automatic heat preservation rice cookers often burn rice. One important reason is that the contacts of their bimetallic thermostats stick together.

The solution is as follows: first remove the two copper leads on the bimetallic thermostat contacts, then remove the thermostat from the base.

Use a sharp knife to pass through the middle of the two contacts, and polish the two contacts in turn until they are flat and shiny.

The above is what I introduced to you about how to deal with burnt rice. I hope it will be helpful to you. Generally speaking, if the rice is severely burnt, it cannot be eaten anymore and it is best to throw it away. This is because the nutritional value of burnt rice has changed. If you still eat it at this time, it will cause adverse effects on your body. If you eat burnt rice for a long time, it will cause cancer.
