On packages of enriched rice sold in supermarkets, the rice preparation directions state that the rice should not be washed before cooking. Explain.

The rice must not be washed due to the following reason:

Explanation:

The washing of rice is important for removing the dirt and contamination so that the food prepared through rice remains contamination free.

This vitamin allows the body to use carbohydrate as a source of energy and it is also necessary for the glucose metabolism.

Thus the food enriched with the rice preparation direction suggests that the rice must not be washed before cooking as it will loose the essential vitamin while washing.
