- What’s transformed/parboiled rice? Don’t confuse transformed rice (or generally it’s known as parboiled rice) with pre-cooked or minute rice.

Typically I purchase it at Winco within the bulk part. I’ve additionally discovered it within the orange field (Ben’s model) subsequent to different rices.
