Physicochemical analysis and sensory evaluation were conducted using stocked NFA rice, remilled rice and remilled-mist-polished rice to determine the effect of mist-polishing on rice grain quality. The most distinct difference among the three samples was seen in the physical properties of raw milled rice. The mist-polished sample was significantly superior over the remilled sample in color, gloss, translucency and general acceptability. The remilled sample was in turn, significantly superior over the original stock sample. However, in the cooked samples, remilled, and mist-polished samples did not differ significantly in sensory and physicochemical properties and aerobic plate count. For these parameters, remilling was enough to improve the quality of the stock sample.
