When you have an individual or small amount of rice to reheat, then using a steamer is a great option. Learn how to use a steamer to reheat rice for extra tender and moist rice.
Add about two inches of water in a pot or pan and place the steamer on top.
Remove the rice from the fridge. Break apart large clumps of rice and place them evenly on the steamer so it cooks properly.
Turn on the heat to medium-high and cover the steamer with a lid.
Steam for about 5 minutes or until the internal temperature of the rice reads to 165 ℉ (use an instant-read or laser thermometer to reach this safety temperature).
