Parboiled and white rice are variants of hydrothermally processed rice. Parboiled rice is partially boiled and is processed in lukewarm or cold water before husking and milling. White rice is usually milled after having the husk, bran and germ removed. They are a rich source of calcium, potassium, fiber and vitamin B6 and are widely used in dry powders, instant soup mixes and frozen foods. Parboiled and white rice are commonly available in long, medium and short lengths. They are widely used in ready-to-eat (RTE) breakfast cereals, biscuits, extruded snacks, baby foods, noodles, fermented beverages and oils. However, in comparison to white rice, parboiled rice is easy to digest, takes lesser time to cool and has a fluffier and less sticky texture.
