I came across this beauty hack using rice water as the core ingredient. I soaked rice in water COVERING IT WITH A PLASTIC BAG (ORDINARY SHOPPING BAG) left it for one day at room temperature and today when I removed the shopping bag it smelt kinda bad. I was gona use it as a face mask... but now im sure weather to use it or not? So is it spoiled?

Best Answer

Yes it would be safer to discard the rice and water. Rice has a tendency to ferment.

I would wash & drain the rice at least once, as there can be traces of husk, talc and any other unwanted dirt/impurities. If you soak the rice for long periods of time, depending on the humidity and temperature of where you are soaking your rice, you may place this in a cool shaded place, or place in the refrigerator as the temperature is regulated.

Alternatively you could consider substituting rice flour instead of rice grains. Note: This could also ferment, but may reduce the required soaking time.

How do you know if rice water has gone bad?

Use for a maximum of 3 days, and keep refrigerated when not in use. Fermented rice water will need much longer \u2013 a minimum of 12 hours, to be exact. You'll then repeat the same straining process as above and you'll want to transfer it to your container of choice.

Does fermented rice water go bad?

Let the rice water sit at room temperature for 12 to 24 hours. This allows it to ferment and all of the yummy vitamins and minerals to come out. Tip: Don't let it sit for over 24 hours.
