Not the stuff you cook at home, but the stuff you plant to make more rice! Moisten the rice seed and allow the rice to germinate. This is the malting process. After malting the rice, pour into a large vat and add lots of water. Boil for an hour, then reduce heat to below 80 degrees. Add yeast and sugar (same amount as rice, measured before malting) and allow to ferment for 3 days. Increase heat to 160 degrees and distill into seperate container. First, you need real rice.
