Abstract:
Rice-washing work can be easily performed by anyone, and proper rice-washing of various kinds of rice can be performed irrespective of an amount of rice. Namely, conventional apparatuses have not dealt with water absorption, infiltration, swelling, weakening, dissolving, and unpleasant taste, making it difficult to secure Japanese style rice quality in a white rice state. The present invention provides a rice-polishing technique for reproducing the quality. Provided is a rice washer that can be installed in a saved space not to cause obstruction even when installed in a kitchen. The rice washer according to the present invention includes a charging part into which milled rice is charged; a pressurized-stirring part provided at a rear-stage of the charging part and configured to, while pressurizing, stir and sequentially feed the milled rice charged from the charging part; a first water supply part configured to supply water to the pressurized-stirring part.
