How to store rice in winter and how to store rice in summer

Because the endosperm is directly exposed, rice is susceptible to the influence of environmental conditions such as external dampness and heat, and is easy to absorb moisture, causing heat and deterioration. At the same time, the rice should not be cooled and heated, and it should not be dried at high temperature or exposed to sunlight, otherwise it will cause a large number of waist explosions. When dry rice absorbs moisture rapidly or moist rice dries rapidly, it will generally burst the waist, produce more broken rice, and reduce the quality of rice.

Therefore, rice should be stored in a cool, dry place.

1 Use plastic bags for storage.

Use a number of non-toxic plastic bags, set together every two for standby, put the dried rice into a double-layer bag, squeeze out the residual air in the bag after loading, and tie the bag mouth tightly with a rope to isolate the rice in the bag from the external environment, which can be kept fresh for a long time.

2 bag cylinder set, timed pouring storage method.

When the higher grade of good rice is dried, put it into a rice bag, tie the bag tightly, put it into the rice cylinder, and store the rice cylinder in a dry and ventilated place. Therefore, rice should be poured out of the bag every 10 days, ventilated, dehumidified, dissipated, and re-stored.

3. Moisture absorption method of plant ash or quicklime storage.

Wrap some fresh and clean plant ash or quicklime in a white cloth, put it at the bottom of the rice tank, and then put the dried rice into the tank, cover the rice tank tightly, and store it in a cool and dry place.

4 The use of kelp for grain storage works very well.

Kelp has strong hygroscopic, bactericidal and insecticidal effects. Every 100 catties of rice is put into 1 catty of dried kelp, and after a week, it can absorb 30 of the water in the rice, kill the mealy mites, moths and other pests in the rice, and the number of molds is greatly reduced. After removing the kombu and drying it, it can be reused more than 20 times.

According to this method to store other grains, after two years the quality and color of the grain remain unchanged, kelp can still be edible, is a good way to be pollution-free, non-damage, no peculiar smell.

5 It is best to store grain with litsea cubeba seeds.

Go to the Chinese herbal medicine store to buy some litsea cubeba seeds (ground end) or 4g of litsea cubeba seed oil ratio, put the dried grain into a closed jar, jar, jar or composite plastic bag, and then put the litsea cubeba seed powder (or oil) into an open bottle, put it on the surface of the grain, seal the main grain container for about a week, then open and deflate, take out the vial and seal it for storage. The biggest advantage of this storage: First, it can remove the grain in the strict.

Heavy carcinogens aflatoxin; the second is to prevent food insects; Third, it is moisture-proof, and the grain is not easy to rot and deteriorate.

6. Use the liquor storage method.

At the end of spring, the rice is packed into a closed container, and then 2 taels of liquor are bottled, which is buried in the rice, the cap is opened, the mouth of the bottle is exposed, and then the container of rice is sealed.

It's time to save the rice! By preserving the rice in this way, rice worms and mold disappear without a trace, and fresh rice is eaten every day

1. The best taste of low-temperature preservation: If you want to retain the taste and quality of new rice, you can store the rice in a low-temperature environment, such as storing it in the refrigerator, which is a better way to reduce the oxidation of rice oil and the breeding of rice worms. However, it should be noted that after the rice is put in the refrigerator, it can no longer be taken out and stored at room temperature.

This is because the temperature change will cause the surface of the rice to absorb moisture, making it moist and perishable. In addition, the temperature in the kitchen is relatively high, so don't stock up too much rice at home at once, and you can also avoid the taste of old rice from deteriorating.

2. Ventilation and bran removal method: the weather changes greatly in summer, and the rice bran is easy to be sticky, resulting in insects. Orange peel contains citral, and burying orange peel in rice can repel insects and insects.

3. Storing rice in plastic bottles without insects: collect the plastic bottles at home, rinse them with water, and dry them. If you need to hold a lot of rice, you can choose a large-capacity bottle.

Before putting the rice in the bottle, it is necessary to make sure that the rice is dry and tighten the lid quickly after putting it in. This not only saves space, but also avoids insects and mold in the rice. In addition to rice, grains such as red beans, purple rice, and millet can also be stored in this way.

4. Use lime to prevent rice insects: spread some quicklime at the bottom of the container containing rice, spread plastic cloth on top, and then enlarge the rice, and cover the container tightly to prevent insects.

5. Kelp to prevent mildew in rice: Putting dried kelp in rice can kill pests and inhibit mold. After 7 days, it can kill more than 96% of mealy mites and moth pests, and absorb 3% of the moisture of rice.

Every 10 days, you need to remove the moist kombu and replace it with dried kombu. The damp kelp can be used after drying.

Rice can be stored in summer by cryopreservation and plastic bottle sealing.

It is a good idea to store rice in the refrigerator to prevent the oxidation of rice oil and the breeding of small insects. However, it is worth noting that if the rice is stored in the refrigerator, it cannot be stored at room temperature, because the temperature change is easy to cause a small amount of moisture to adhere to the surface of the rice, which is easy to get wet and even moldy.

If there is less rice at home, we can find a clean and dry plastic bottle, put the rice in the plastic bottle, and quickly tighten the cap, provided that both the rice and the plastic bottle are dry. This method can not only prevent mildew and insect breeding and reproduction of rice, but also facilitate cleaning up and make the environment more tidy.

Rice insect control tips.

1. Freezing method: If the insects are not very serious, you can put the rice in the refrigerator together with the container containing the rice for 24 hours and take it out, and then directly pick them out, and the frozen rice will not affect the taste.

3. Liquor method: The ethanol volatilized in liquor has the effect of killing viruses and insects. Put a glass of liquor in the rice box, and the mouth of the cup should be higher than the rice noodles, so that the liquor can volatilize naturally, so as to effectively prevent rice insects.

4. Garlic method: Put a few cloves of garlic in different positions in the rice box, and close the lid of the rice box tightly, and the insect prevention effect is also very good.

5. Kelp method: dry kelp has a strong ability to absorb moisture. At the same time, it also has the effect of inhibiting mold and insecticide, and the dried kelp and rice are 1:0 by weight

Mix at a ratio of 100 percent, and take out the kombu every 10 days to dry until it is dry before putting it back. One serving of kelp can be reused about 20 times.

6. Orange peel method: Dry the orange peel left over from eating oranges and put it in rice. The taste of orange peel not only repellent insects, but also gives the rice a refreshing aroma.
