If you know you're going to want rice when you're in a hurry, it keeps

I cook rice once a week. My husband eats most of it, but it saves me
from doing up a single portion several times. I just nuke his bit for a
minute and toss the veggies on top. For special occasions I'll have a
quarter cup.

I don't care to keep cold cooked rice for very long - apparently it is
very easy to contract food poisoning from it. Obviously if I am making
a cold rice dish, then I allow it to cool, but otherwise I don't cook
more than I need for that meal.
