I think this is a big issue for many people who eat gluten-free. I personally don't eat a lot of rice, and I bake with a variety of GF flours, but I think I will stop baking completely now with the brown rice flour, and use sorghum and other flours instead, although it seems like so much of our food can be contaminated these days. I didn't know the trick about rinsing before cooking...curious if that is the reason we don't hear about a lot of health problems in Asian countries where they eat a lot of rice...EA Stewart, MBA, RDhttp://twitter.com/TheSpicyRDnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7739675715154690483.post-90059969772594155842012-09-28T05:50:08.787-07:002012-09-28T05:50:08.787-07:00have your water tested?

They like to dumb things like this down in the media so the average American doesn't care but goodness...if it's not one thing to worry about it's another! Although I personally hardly ever eat rice or rice products (never liked any asian cuisine and when I eat mexican I usually opt out of the rice except for at chipotle, which I almost never eat, and I steer clear of products with brown rice syrup). that being said...arsenic in water scares me to pieces. I can't afford a reverse osmosis system for my house right now and now I need to look up if my mere brita pitcher filter gets it out. Ug.

I'm hoping the R.I.C.E act gets passed..however, even if it does, this proves that we as consumers should be more aware of what it is we are putting on the dinner table and into our bellies, because like arsenic..bad eating habits can catch up to us over time and potentially cause some unwanted results. So glad you gave us some helpful tips on the steps we can take in order to minimize the levels of arsenic in our riceKatelynnnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7739675715154690483.post-79750740962474573092012-09-27T08:12:15.388-07:002012-09-27T08:12:15.388-07:00keep washing/scrubbing and I would decrease consum...keep washing/scrubbing and I would decrease consumption if have a lot.Laurennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7739675715154690483.post-38657994762124674762012-09-27T06:15:19.215-07:002012-09-27T06:15:19.215-07:00This was alarming because we like rice.

I kind of fell out of the habit over the past year, but I guess that's not such a bad thing after all! Thanks for the cooking tips so when I do make it, I can do it safely.Jessnoreply@blogger.com
