Preparation-How par-boiled rice is prepared

Par-boiled rice preparation is not so easy and it consists of a number of stages. First, stalking are cut and tied in bundles which are taken to farm-house. They are threshed to separate grain from stalks and grain is collected in baskets. Next grain is slowly spread on the ground from a height to blow away the dust. Then these fresh grain is boiled till water dries, after that it is soaked in water in big earthen pots and left covered for the night. Then it is taken out in bamboo baskets in the morning and the water is drained. It is boiled again. The boiled grain is left to dry on the ground for days, then it is taken to dhaki to separate the grain from the husk. It is winnowed again and again to blow off the husks. Thus it is a long process of preparing par-boiled rice.
