  • In Indonesia, white rice was soaked with spring water until a layer of froth forms on the top of the water. The froth is skimmed off and dehydrated into a powder form. In earlier times, it was noted that field workers would apply the froth to their skin, while working all day in the hot sun, and yet their skin would remain smooth and supple.
