About the storage of rice:
Northeast rice stored at home should be stored in a cool, ventilated and dry place to avoid high temperature and light. When rice is filled in a container (rice barrel or rice cylinder), it should be lit with paper before filling, and the container should be dried and disinfected. After the northeast rice is bought back, put it in a rice bucket or rice vat, cover it and put it in a dry and ventilated place one foot from the ground. When eating, adopt the method of bringing forth the old and bringing forth the new, eat the bought rice first, and then eat the bought rice to prevent mildew, mouse and insect pollution.
Always expose empty rice barrels and empty rice tanks, and remove bran powder and eggs from the tanks. In rainy and midsummer seasons, in order to prevent mildew and insects, you can put a few pieces of crab shells or turtle shells or garlic in the rice jar. If rice is infested, Mi Chong should be removed first, and then pepper and fennel should be wrapped in gauze and placed on the surface of northeast rice. Don't cover the rice jar immediately.
