Cleaning Rice Properly

I've seen a bunch of ways that rice can be cleaned from having running water over it, to rinsing it using a strainer. I've tried both but this is the way that just works best for me.

• I was told to just rinse the rice until the water runs pretty close to clear with no specific instructions from my family members. It wasn't until recently that I actually learned how to do it "correctly". 
• I fill the pot with water and I just grab the rice with one hand and have the grains gently grind against each other in the water. 
• I then drain the pot trying not to spill any of the rice as the milky water gets poured down the drain.
• I normally do this process about three times. I've been told to leave the water running over the rice during this process but I just feel like it wastes too much water.

• After the rice has been cleaned, just follow the directions in the bag on how much water you need and throw it in the rice cooker. I like to use filtered water when I cook the rice since that's whats getting absorbed. 

Clean Happy Rice :)
