Basically, salt has an abrasive. When rubbed with rice, salt will help grind the surface of the rice little by little. Well, this is what then makes the rice whiter after washing. On the other hand, the use of lemon will make the rice more fragrant and not smell musty.

After being washed four times, the rice does look whiter and cleaner than before. This indicates that salt and lemon water are very effective in improving the quality of rice. That way, the rice can be cooked directly as usual in a rice cooker.
"It was a bit black, more dirty. But after I washed it, it was cleaner and shinier than the first time," said YouTuber Yulfin Belwawin.
