There is single stage single steaming, single-stage double steaming and/or three-stage double steaming.
Advantages of parboiling-
It's simple to dehusk parboiled rice. Insect and fungal resistance are higher in mild parboiled rice.
Grain becomes harder, resulting in fewer milling losses.
This method of parboiling fully eliminates breaking. Nutrient losses owing to the removal of husk and bran during milling are reduced.
It ensures that the minerals and vitamins of the rice are intact
Parts of the scutellum and germ that are high in vitamin B are attached to the grain, reducing vitamin B losses.
Parboiling aids digestion and prevents the formation of glutenous material when cooked.
