Description
Supermarket instant rice, cooked and dried so the starch is already gelatinised: it goes straight into the mash with no cereal cook, which is why homebrewers reach for it in a light lager. Behaves like flaked rice, with near-full extract, no color and no flavor of its own. Buy plain white rice with nothing added.
