Types of Rice
Cooked rice should be cooled quickly. To cool hot cooked rice, spread rice on a baking sheet, then place it in a shallow container, cover tightly, and refrigerate. Cooked rice can be kept in the refrigerator for up to six days or in the freezer for up to six months. To freeze, place rice in freezer bags and store flat, keeping storage space to a minimum. Reheat by placing in the microwave with a couple of tablespoons of water.
