Adding rice to a shaker of table salt to absorb ambient moisture is a trick that has been used for as long as I can remember. It doesn't absorb moisture from the salt so much as from the around the salt.
Put uncooked rice in the bottom of the shaker. The rice will absorb the atmospheric moisture instead of the salt, and the salt will flow out of the shaker better.
To keep salt dry in a shaker, you can add a few grains of rice. The rice helps absorb any moisture that may cause the salt to clump. Additionally, you can store the salt shaker in a cool, dry place away from humidity.
No, salt absorb moisture.
The salt will absorb any moisture in the surrounding air. Salt is best kept in a warm area of your home.
The rice keeps the salt dry and prevents it from clumping up. It keeps it dry by absorbing humidity (moisture) in the air. Caution! Be sure the holes in the salt shaker lid are not too large as to allow the rice grains to pass through. Otherwise, you will get rice mixed with the salt when you use it.
No.
A few grains of rice will absorb any moisture. They will also, of course, be gradually ground out by the mill, providing extra and valuable roughage for your diet.
Common household items that can draw moisture out of the air include silica gel packets, salt, rice, and baking soda. Placing these items in areas with high humidity can help absorb excess moisture.

Table Salt has an impurity in it, MgCl2. It is highly hygroscopic i.e absorbs water. In rainy seasons, due to the presence of moisture in air, MgCl2 reacts with moisture and hence Table salt gets wet.
by using rice as a filter
when u mix the rice with salt it help the rice expand faster and to get cooked faster
