Today I learned: There's a current scientific best practice to cook rice when it comes to the endpoints “removal of pollutants” and “preserving nutrients/minerals”.
TL;DR: Cook rice with excess water (ratio about 1:4) for about five minutes, drain and discard the water, add fresh water (typical ratio for full absorption), bring to a boil and cool for the remaining time.
Apparently, this is more effective than washing and soaking. Method works for brown and white rice.
