How to Reheat Rice Safely
When reheating rice, the key is ensuring it is hot enough to kill any active bacteria:
Heat thoroughly until steaming hot all the way through.
Avoid reheating more than once, as each cycle of cooling and heating increases the risk.
Discard any rice that looks or smells unusual.
