Brilio.net - Consumed almost every day, rice is one of the staple foods that many people stock. Unfortunately, rice is also a food ingredient that does not have a long shelf life. Especially if the storage method is haphazard. Rice actually becomes a nest for fleas and emits a rancid smell.
When washed, the lice in the rice may be removed. But unfortunately, the rice still smells rancid. In fact, sometimes, the rancid smell can still be smelled even though the rice has become cooked rice.
Some people choose to throw away rice that has gone rancid, because it is often considered unfit for consumption. In fact, rice that has gone rancid can still be cooked for consumption.
Well, there are tricks that can be applied when cooking rice that has a rancid smell. This trick was shared by a netizen with the TikTok account name @juwiezy.

Reported by BrilioFood from TikTok @juwiezy on Tuesday (16/7), first put the rice in the rice cooker pan. Then wash the rice with running water several times until it is perfectly clean.
"There are no rice bugs," said the owner of the video.

Even though it has been washed repeatedly, the rancid smell in the rice is still strong. Knowing this, this netizen deliberately added one type of leaf, namely pandan, to the rice cooker pan. Wash the pandan leaves and fold them into a ribbon shape.

If so, then put the pan into the rice cooker. Then close and press the rice cooker button. Wait a few moments until the rice cooker shows that the rice is cooked.

Once the rice cooker beeps, it means the rice is cooked. Open the lid of the rice cooker and stir the rice so that the hot steam comes out.
Because there are additional pandan leaves, the rice becomes more fragrant and appetizing. When brought closer, the rancid smell in the rice also disappeared completely.
