I believe it is because of convection currents.
It is impossible to boil rice particles themselve (dry state), they would be burned. Water is the boiling substance when cooking rice. It boiling temperature is round 100 oC.
Rice is soluble in water, which means it dissolves when cooked in boiling water. However, rice does not fully dissolve like salt or sugar. It absorbs water and swells during cooking, resulting in a softer texture without actually dissolving.
Rice can be separated from water by using a strainer or a colander. Simply pour the rice and water mixture into the strainer, and the water will drain out, leaving the rice behind.
No, rice does not dissolve in water like salt or sugar. Rice grains are solid particles and will not break down completely when exposed to water.
To separate a mixture of salt and rice, you can use the method of dissolving the salt in water. When you add water to the mixture, the salt will dissolve while the rice will remain intact. Then, you can filter the mixture to separate the rice from the salty water. Finally, you can evaporate the water to obtain the salt.
Rice swirls around a pot of boiling water due to convection currents created by the heat. As the water heats up, it becomes less dense and rises to the surface, while cooler, denser water sinks to the bottom. This movement causes the rice to be stirred and swirled as the water circulates, ensuring even cooking and preventing the rice from clumping together. Additionally, the movement of the boiling water helps to separate and hydrate the grains.
Rice should be cooked at a temperature of around 200F to 212F, which is the boiling point of water.

No, the rice will not be fully cooked without supplying additional heat. While pouring rice into boiling water initiates the cooking process, the heat from the boiling water alone may not be sufficient to cook the rice thoroughly. The rice needs to absorb water and continue cooking for a certain amount of time, typically requiring sustained heat to reach the desired texture and doneness.
Rice cooks by steaming or by being in boiling water. The rice absorbs the hot water, softening the rice grains and cooking the starch. Uncooked rice would be very difficult to eat and digest.
I have a very simple and full proff method. 1 cup of rice Place rice in pan, cover with just under 2 cups of boiling water. Place lid on pan. After 10 mins check the rice. Don't take the lid off before this! Test, if still a little underdone leave for up to 3 mins Longer. This ratio works well for me everytime. 1 part rice to just under 2 part boiling water
It detects that the water has boiled off. There is a temperature sensor set just above the boiling point of water. If there is water still present, it doesn't allow the temperature to go over the boiling point.
Cook half a cup of rice for about 15-20 minutes in boiling water.
To prevent your rice cooker from boiling over, make sure to use the correct ratio of water to rice, avoid overfilling the cooker, and keep an eye on the cooking process to adjust the heat if needed.
It simply means that the rice has not absorbed all the water it has cooked in. Taste your rice, if it is still hard you can add a small amount of boiling water to the rice and continue cooking. If the rice is cooked and soft then simply drain off the excess water, allow the rice to rest, fluff and serve.
Boil water in pot, then add rice, then strain (get all the water out). If you add lemon while boiling it make the rice soft and fluffy like in restarnces.
The bubbling you see when cooking rice is caused by the water reaching its boiling point and turning into steam. This process helps the rice cook evenly and absorb the water, resulting in a fluffy texture.
