Rice has a tight structure, and it takes a long time for water to absorb and penetrate into it. It takes an hour at normal temperature and about 15 minutes at 50 to 90 degrees. However, when uncooked rice is in water at about 100 degrees, the surface absorbs water and turns into cooked rice.

It hinders the penetration of water into the rice grains and prolongs the time.
