Freezing
To freeze rice porridge, allow it to cool completely. Portion it into airtight containers or freezer bags, leaving a small headspace for expansion. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator and reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave, adding a splash of water or milk if it has thickened too much. Freezing may slightly alter the texture, making it a bit softer.

- Visible mold growth, which can appear as fuzzy patches of various colors.
- A slimy or unusually sticky texture, indicating bacterial proliferation.
